Now, that is outstanding.
Masterfully done!

This is fantastic Robert. Your treatment of the bloomery steel has such class and the details in your fittings are amazing. It's work like this that keeps me going.. because I realize I'm nowhere close to where I want to be which keeps up the drive and prevents the stagnation of boredom.

beautiful blade man, what's the spec of the steel though?

Wow.... Just wow... That is fantastic. Absolutely beautiful. The sword is great, and I love the scabbard.

Magnificent work Robert (I'm tempted to say as usual as the rest of the work shown on your website is equally remarkable)

Could not resist adding a close up of the pommel. Would be a shame not to enjoy a closer view, shows how carefully crafted the details are. Simply stunning.

That is a remarkable sword. Well done!

The belt fittings are well matched to the sword. Great work all around!

Absolutely stunning... :!:

Now that is beautiful.

That's one for the Hall of Fame

Now THAT'S a sword!!! Well done as always Robert! The Santa Casilda sword has always bee one I've wanted to see a repro of and I'm really glad I get to now! The scabbard is just great, I love the enamel bits. Whoever this sword is going to is one lucky guy!

Now that is a nice sword. It is good to see what a high-quality reproduction of this sword can look like.

Absolutely beautiful work!

Thank you for sharing this with us. It is posts like this that makes me look more and more toward having a custom sword made. It is beautiful.

Robert, you did everything for this sword that the new MRL replica couldn't do. The MRL version looks okay, but yours is 10,000% better. Fantastic work! You are to be commended, sir.............McM

Hi Robert.
As usual fantastic effort just amazing cant wait to see what you are up to next we all love to see your eye candy.

:eek: Stunning! I covet this sword very much!

Thanks for all kind words.
Robert

I believe this sword is just "slightly" nicer than the MRL version. ;)
