I am putting up for sale my custom damascus broadsword that John Lundemo made for me. It's absolutely the most beautiful sword I've ever seen or held and I feel honored to have been able to own her for these few years.
The blade is Jerry Rados damascus steel, the furniture is hand carved and antiqued bronze, and the grip is made from bubinga burl hardwood. It's a large sword at 3lb 5oz but feels deceptively fast in the hand since the POB is only about 3-inches out from the guard. The inscriptions come from my Catholic background and my intent with this sword was for it to be an heirloom piece. John certainly accomplished that goal!!!
This sword also comes with a custom leather over wood scabbard and belt that John made for it.
