thank you for the detailed review. I'll get the Kvetun Liechtenauer hopefully by the end of the week. I had a really hard decision to make wether i'll take the 1570 or the Liechtenauer. I went with the Liechtenauer because I heard from a few people i.e. Matt Easton that it handles more like a real sword whereas the 1570 handles more like a optimized competition feder.
I would say the rolled tip is more dangerous than the spatulated tip, always prefer spatulated tip. But both are fine if they have a rubber or leather tip on them. I also think 1600 plus is a lot of weight, the saving grace is that point of balance.

Thanks for the review. Definitely considering the 1570.
@robbiemcsweeney Any update on this feder? Have you been using it? Any durability issues?
My first feder was/is a Regenyei standard with a rolled tip. Personally, I think it ruins the look of the sword.
