|
|
After studying several more originals i decided to make another Ahlpeiss with a more generic design following the appearance of the most beautiful 15th cen originals.
This one has shaped sheetmetal forge-welded to the spike thats curved into a socket and forge-welded together along one side. Like in many originals the rondel is not permanently attached but forced on, into a slot, removable upwards but fixed from movement down.
Length 230cm
Weight 2,1kg.
Additional images can be found at my webpage, allmoge.blogspot.com

Nice I like those weapons and I must say your piece looks decent.What steel did you use?

The sword is a weapon for killing, the art of the sword is the art of killing. No matter what fancy words you use or what titles you put to
it that is the only truth.
