I love this sword!

As do I. Outstanding work.

... man, Mr.K has got the " assembly line " in high gear. How many beauties have you shown
us in the last week or two ??? B-)

Very fine work, too !

well - thank you all guys :)
Matthew - I`m just working always at the same time with a few pieces - and then - when it comes to finishing - you can see also a few swords :)
now - for example - I`m on the finish with second Brescia sword and another viking type H - reconstruction of the sword from river Vaal - bigger sword - real beast (about 2kg weight, 60mm blade width) ... I will show you the results of course soon...

This has long been one of my favorite swords and I've always longed to see a recreation. Looks great! I'd have loved to see the inlay like the original but I like it clean like this too! Very, very cool sword!

Beautiful sword.It is one of my favourites.I have it in progress for a longer time,maybe as my personal sword.Maciej,do you have any better pictures of original?It will help me...

How can one contact you for ordering or prices? Your website seems to be only in polish...

Greetings,
Holger

thank you.
Robert - I was looking for it - but no - only pictures from the books...
I was asking the museum but they didnt answer - and this is too far from my place...
ion the book the measurements are quite well described - but only with drawings...

I will do the inlays on that one - but only with oxide - it depends on budget in this case :)

It will help too.I have only one drwing in book by Lech Marek,and no measurements.Thanks.

Holger and Robert - please contact me by e-mail inahelahr@gmail.com
every evening I answer all e-mails there... thank you.

Holger - you will find me also on FB profiles:
Swordmaker
or
Miecze Średniowieczne

Here is a nice drawing I have of the whole sword... It's more complete than the drawing in Marek's book. I don't know the source unfortunately...

Maciej nice reconstruction, do you have some more stats for the sword, blade length, blade width, crossguard width etc?

Thanks

Danny

Hi Maciej
That is one very good reconstruction I love this type of swords thank you for sharing
your work seams to get better with each piece you make congratulations

thank you Jerry. I`m trying :)

Thanks Julien! nice to hear that.
website will be in English - but I dont know exactly when... the problem is that I have to do it all myself - alone.
I`m just trying share informations with people - in Poland was no such website before - it takes me a lot of time to build this and gather new stuff, preparing publication texts and photos... some people from Poland already want to help me with this - thanks to them!
about the prices - there can be no price list for museum handmade sword reconstructions... it depends also on the details and custom wishes - not only on particular sword example... anyway- I will think about this in future :)
the point is that for me it`s not a business - but the art and passion.
thank you for your opinion and important suggestions ! :)
