Overall rating: 4.8 / 5 from 29 reviews.
I bought this after seeing a review for it on YT (Shad), the product quality i received seems just as good as the video. It's very sturdy and the fitment seems very nice, even the fit of the sword into the scabbard is snug. As usual, RoM also did a very good job packaging to ensure it was safe in transit. The grind lines as well as the peen look pretty clean and it's reasonably sharp. I'd say the build quality is definitely above average for the price point and the weight balance is good.
Excellent service and quality, thank you. I stained the blade with bluing to camouflage it.
Excellent quality, perfect fit and finish and extremely sharp!! 10/10
Absolutely love it so light and well balanced has a sharp edge it's a great sword Absolutely flawless another great job from rom
Great value for the price!
I really like this sword. Fantastic!
The sword is great but the sheath is so tight that I have to wrench it out. 4/5
Overall really happy with the Arming sword. Blade is nice. Crossguard is nice, no sharp edges. Handle is comfortable, leather is nice. Stitching is quality. Pommel is nice, peened well, everything smooth and shows quality craftsmanship. Scabbard is decent. Only nitpick is that I wish it a bit sharper, it tore a bit when cutting pool noodles. 3rd sword from ROM, won't be the last.
It's hard to explain exactly how good this sword is. The sword looks very basic because that it what it is. Whoever designed it did an excellent job because as some reviewers have mentioned, it doesn't replicate historical swords. It is tactically efficient and well designed. They didn't go out of their way to make it flashy. The diamond profile would be heavy but the fuller is nice and deep at the base of the blade and removes a lot of the weight. The diamond cross section makes it an excellent thrusting sword. It pairs well with another sword I have that is a type XIV that is primarily for slashing. It's like a big dagger. There are no other swords in my collection like it and I have not been able to find many online that are similar. An exquisite piece. Thank you ROM.
I haven’t done any cutting yet, but I can say the sword felt very nimble and controllable in hand. No complaints about the blade, hand guard, pommel or the scabbard, everything feels solid and looks great.
This sword is beautiful. It's extremely well-crafted, and the fit and finish is amazing. The blade is great and very sharp. Everything is fitted tight with no rattles or any problems. This is my 6th sword from ROM, and I will be collecting the rest of their medieval swords.
We are VERY HAPPY with our purchase, THANK YOU!
All good!
I've been amazed at this sword! The balance and workmanship is above my expectations. Might be buying a 2nd one soon. Money's been tight for a while and that's the only reason I haven't done so yet. Absolutely love these guys and I'm praying they're all very blessed 🙏⚔️
Excellent Sword. Fit and finish is great. Quality item.
This is a GREAT sword! The wait is well worth it! Definitely not just something pretty and NOT a toy. This is a real weapon. The demonstration videos aren’t a hoax. This thing arrived SHARP! Absolutely satisfied with my purchase!
I simply love this sword. The quality is far beyond anything that I've seen from most of the other places I've ordered from. The only one that's come close to the quality is "Kult of Athena", but their selection is different from what I've seen. All that said I love these swords I've purchased from ROM. If my wife ever allows me to get anymore blades, ROM will be the first place I shop.
Well worthy the price. Great balance and edge.
An amazing product at such a great price. Thanks ROM.
The Aquila is a fantastic sword. Very well made and excellent balance and feel. I’m astonished that the price is so low for such a high quality sword. Worth every penny!
Couple blemishes on the hilt guard but it’s a great buy for the price never the less.
This sword is amazing and I love it was packaged well and is worth every penny thank you ROM for what feel lile a real deal mid evil hand forged sword take you back in time just holding it
Beautiful sword. Feels great in the hand. Wish there was an option to change the image on the pomel but thats a minor issue. No complaints otherwise. Looks amazing.
It is sharp, well made, and has a perfect fit with the scabard. I love it.
I would give it 5/5 if not for an issue with the pommel on the one that I received that affects its appearance negatively, the weight is also just a tad on the heavy side, but not bad for the price point. If I could I would give it a 4.5/5 because it is still a great sword for the price, the blade itself being its strong suit IMO.
Sword is very nice. Looks great and feels great, though I haven’t beaten on anything with it (yet… :). Scabbard has some unnecessary raised features - presumably for looks. Considering the scabbard is wrapped with synthetic pleather, these features accentuate the “costume” look more than a plain scabbard would. The value overall is very good and I’ll probably have a new scabbard made (a good project to work on).
