New Handle & New Name

Author:
Daniel Besnier

Greeting to all!
As you may know, I made some improvements to Squire’s sword (Novice for now) . The idea was to change the size of the handle, especially for bastard version. I had a thick steel wire rode and a ring near the guard. These two additions gave a better control with the weapon. Although several models manufactured today, whether medieval or fantastic, have handles style spindle-shaped (rounder silhouette), I noticed that historically (see diagram) making this style is more suitable for thrusting hit and is a lighter weapon like the rapier (in general because there are exceptions)!

Note: The final color will be black

On this, we need you to find a new name for this sword. The current name is Novice but nobody likes it. So following a suggestion from our fan page in Facebook, here’s the final list that we choose. Please vote and help us to find a name for this sword:
