Very well made they are too. I have one of his swords. Erik is a superb craftsman.
As with all craftsmen and suppliers, there are some things that are not as accurate as others.
As an example, Polybius tells us the size of the Hastati breast plates (nearly 30cm2 in todays money) but Erik has made his reconstruction as a large rectangle.
