Anoakenstaff, great topic and thread!!! and great entries which really give perspective on this subject, thank you guys!
Looking forward to the sword with hilts alluding to fluer-de lis!!!
While the origins of the fluer de lis as a state symbol in France are a bit clouded historically, it is indeed tempting as to the possible contemporary intent of the trilobate hilt and quillons representing that, it is of course speculative at this point.
Glad you're here! You are clearly well versed in this topic which is not often touched on here lately.
