Carried by Tam al’Thor when he fought in the Aiel War, this sword was kept hidden in the cottage he shared with his son Rand until one fateful night when Trollocs sent by the Dark One attacked. It bears the heron mark, indicating its wielder is a blademaster, a title which Tam earned and Rand hopes to live up to as he now carries this sword on his mission with Moiraine Sedai to stop the Dark One.

Heron Mark Sword

Posted by Gary on Jul 4th 2023

This is my second sword through Jalic,(first through Valyrian Steel). Right away, after opening the box, I could tell this one would be special. The scabbard itself was a work of art in and of itself. A softer leather with brass accents, the scabbard was much nicer than the scabbard that I got for my Oathkeeper blade. the blade itself is a highly polished stainless steel. A bit sharper than I was expecting from a collectible. Hilt is a nice textured leather with a brass (colored?) tsuba. Overall, much nicer than I was expecting from the price.

However nothing is perfect. A few minor tweaks I would suggest. The scabbard is lined with wood. This causes the blade to stick in the scabbard when attempting to draw the blade from scabbard. I believe this is because of the raised Heron emblem on the blade itself rubbing against the wood. Having the first three inches of the scabbard lined with a fabric instead, or even a just a thinner layer of wood would eliminate that. Secondly, the display rack is designed to hang on a wall. If it was tweaked with a flat bottom, it would offer a versatility, allowing it to be hung on wall or displayed on a tabletop or mantle.

These are both minor nitpicking; I was highly satisfied with the Heron Marked Blade. Definitely worth the purchase.
