Historical? Fantasy? Yes. Valiant Armoury Irish Ring Leaf Blade Longsword review

I bought this Valiant Armoury Irish Ring Leaf Blade Longsword direct from Valiant Armoury at Combat Con 2023. In this review, I go over it in great detail, cut with it, discuss its handling, point out a few things that could be improved, and then give my verdict on whether or not I think it's worth the asking price of $1,595.
