I just found this picture of the original out of its case in the photo archive! I'd never seen it not behind glass. Absolutely beautiful. And the reproduction looks like a worthy successor. :D

That photo is one of those I took during the documentation back in 2002.
A full set of photos, a scale 1:1 tracing of the sword with measurements is the material that is the basis for the current NG deisgn and a previous handforged version for a private customer.
I had some two hours together with this sword: it was an unforgettable experience.
Right now time is a bit tight, I will try to get back later on this topic and describe a little of what goes into the deisgn process after you have access to the full documentation material.
