Right click, "show picture" on the red x worked for me... (looking forward to Windows 7 today)

Nathan, have you handled the original, if so how does it compare?
Beautiful sword!

I always like seeing numerous swords next to each other because it does give some valuable information about relative scale and in addition more to drool over per single pic. ;) :D :cool:

I know this is an old post, but I must say, that is one amazingly beautiful sword!!! All I know about swords has pretty much been learned on here, but if there was ever a weapon that screamed lethal beauty, that's it! A katana's got nothing on that baby.
I'm currently writing a book (another book- the one I was helped with on here is up to #5), and I've been looking for an appropriate sword as inspiration- and oh boy that is it!

If you manage that mind if I join? :)

You know when I start looking at your collection I realize I need to make more stuff for myself. If I did not luv yea so much I might even think of lifting one or two of your beauties off your hands :)
You really do have good taste!
Craig :)

So how does it cut? Was it tatami or other mediums? Did you try any push or pull type actions or was it cleaving? ENquiring minds want to know :)

I realise that this a very old thread but I've only just discovered this absolutely georgeous sword :surprised: :D . Was there a matching scabbard made for this? What would a scabbard/suspension for this type of sword have looked like?

I unfortunately never had a scabbard made for this sword. I should have. I imagine it would have looked like any other longsword scabbard from the period.
