Magnificent!

Stunning work. Are you allowed to post what the next one costs?

Mateusz, it's wonderful. I'm sorry I don't know: is this pommel is slanted on purpose like the original? Did your other XVIII replicas also do this? Very nice.

Thank you !
The pommel is straight but I put this plate in the pommel in this way because original sword have it in askew position.
My first versions of Munich sword had a little different engraving on the plate (in straight position), because I didn't have enough good photos of original pommel.
I've recently got a better photos of this pommel and my latest versions have plate in askew position as original sword.

Excellent work yet again Mr. Sulowski! The gold plating on the pommel looks fantastic! I like the slant of the pommel inset. would the inset be displayed vertically when the sword is in its scabbard and belted onto oneself?

Good point Jon! I checked it now and if you are left handed then yes - engraving is in vertical position.
