So a couple years ago (yes years) a young man who I met thru a church youth function approached me about helping him make a sword. So we got together here and there as our schedules allowed (sometimes 15 minute sessions etc) with some big gaps between and worked on it. I never tried something so big. Its about 32" long total. It was a huge challenge and learning experience for me and him both. We finally finished it this past weekend and I should have gotten more pics but we were so excited about hacking at some wood with it we kinda forgot lol. Anyway its 1/4" 1095 steel with a hollow grind and a w2 guard. The handle and case is oak with ebony and copper accents. Ill ask him to text me some more pics of everything and post more later for those interested. BTW this was all done free of any charge including material and Im glad I did it cause this young man has matured and grown so much over the past couple years and its been a great thing to witness.
