1stMate Matt Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I am heading to Fort Zachary Taylor this friday and I needed something to wear on my side. I wanted to make something subtle and sweet. I left the edge blunt on this for the time being. If I still have this sword when I return, I plan to grind more off the edge making it lighter and adding a sharp edge to it. Custom hanger with 24.25" blade and is 29 " Overall. Blade is satin polished with double hand ground fullers, stop edge and file worked spine. The blade is .175" thick at the hilt and distally tapers to .1" just before the tip and .08" at the tip The blade is 1.125" wide at the hilt and .75" before the curve of the tip. The hilt is medium carbon alloy and is heat treated for toughness The spiral fluted handle is made of whitetail antler with fluted steel cap. The overall weight of this sword is 1.37 LBS or 625 grams The edge is left blunt for stage combat use and the POB is 4" from the hilt.

Capt. Sterling Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I will wager ye won't hold on to that one long...lovely. "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell... I was forced to write what I would say to prevent the loss of blood, and because of the pain I suffered by speaking."~ Woodes Rogers Crewe of the Archangel http://jcsterlingcptarchang.wix.com/creweofthearchangel# http://creweofthearchangel.wordpress.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
