Albion Swords (formerly Albion Armorers) is a company based in New Glarus, Wisconsin manufacturing European sword replicas.
The company was started in Washington D.C. by Howard and Amy Waddell in 1998.

The lowest-end is the "Squire Line" and the "Maestro Line," which is a series of sparring swords intended for practitioners of historical European martial arts.
[2] In 2001, Albion Swords hired Bladesmith and custom Knifemaker Jody Samson to reproduce collector versions of the swords he designed for the Conan the Barbarian films.
