So every one has been wondering what is going on with Generation 2.
Well let me tell you we are busy, very busy. Not only do we have new a Generation 2 Bowie Knife in the works but also 2 new Stage Combat Line swords coming as well.

We are teaming up with Last Legend to make Pro Sword. How does that work you ask? Well mostly Last Legend will make the oriental portion of Pro Sword and Generation 2 will make the medieval aspect.

But, there is also in the works and I am sure many are busting to find out if it is true, but Last Legend, Generation 2 and Pro sword has the Hank Reinhart, yes the Hank Reinhart sending us desings to make a "Hank Reinhart" collection. Both Last Legend and Generation2 have 3 drawings to start with.

Does this mean this deal is in the bag? No, we have to first make the proto-types and Hank has to approve. I will tell you he was impressed by our Crusader sword we sent to to inspect.

Also if you want to know more about how well Generation 2 swods are made and to read an interview I had with Paul Southren from Sword Buyers Guide www.sword-buyers-guide.com/ezine.html Click on the link. You will have to subscribe to his newsletter. But it is free.

Well that is all I have for now. But as new items or news come in you will find it posted on our website and posted here.

We are working on a wider blade thrusting sword that will taper to the tip.
But it will not be in the Reinhardt line.

The 1st sword is up. It is The Dordogne Sword. The drawing of this sword was given to Hank Reinhardt by Ewart Oakeshott. We have a picture of the original drawing.
One hundred of these swords will be set aside and will be individually numbered and then hand signed by Hank Reinhardt.

The next sword will be a beautiful Viking Sword, one that Hank has been wanting to have done.

When do you expect the viking sword to come out?

The Viking sword will be here in Late January.
Then we will take pictures and post them on the site.

Well the 2nd sword from the Hank Reinhardt Collection is here.
It is a 10th Century Viking Sword. The original was found in the River Witham.
And according to post in several forums Generation 2 has done a beautiful job in re-creating this sword based on the original.
We have opted for a suede handle because it feels so much better and it will not slip in your hand.
Other than that change it is a very remarkable sword, especially once you hold it in your hand.
But take a look for yourself.
Here is the direct link to the Hank Reinhardt Collection and you can go from there to each of the 2 swords we have already.

We will continue to add more swords to this collection and we have plans for some axes and maces as well.
