I'm not sure if this forum is mostly dead, but I was reading some of the old threads on deepeeka redesigns and trying to figure out which are well regarded or not, by summing up all of the inaccuracies. Does this sound correct?
I put them in order of 'correctness.'
Plain
AH3264P
The standard, as correct as they make. Some minor issues like blade shape, ridge size, but overall dimensions and construction is correct
Exeter
AH3264X
Decent, though gutters may be a little thick, and plates are possibly welded on instead of just attached with the ring pins. Otherwise good.
Titelburg
AH3264T
Brass sheath is probably not historically accurate?
Leeuwen
AH3264A
Scabbard shape is off, blade too thick; ring brackets are wrong.
Brass Beaded
AH3264B
The older, less accurate attempt at a Leeuen. Embossed beadwork is wrong, it should be affixed.
Embossed
AH3264E
Totally wrong. Likely an inlaid scabbard misunderstood to be made from affixed plates. Shame, it's pretty!
