If there is any interest for this blade, please feel free to make an offer.
If you rather have this made into a sword, I may be able to find the time to complete it for you
Either way please contact.
Thanks,

Gabriel I realize its unhilted and a type XX, but could you double check the weight. also, could you give us just a brief readers digest on how you and A&A came up with the blade geometry...... it seems..... based on my quick back-of-the-envelope analysis, to be , well, kind of out there in terra incognita as far as blades go based on weight, length, tang length/blade length, width at hilt etc. but maybe there was an extant example it was based on? thanks! tr

The blade weight is 3 lb 5.8 oz with an accuracy of + or - 0.1 %. Other parameters are unchanged.
The design and execution was with my input and A&A's expertise with the geometry based on XX.1 here:
http://www.myArmoury.com/feature_spotxx.html
This is not the first XX type that A&A is making and surely they are very well experienced.
As for the subject of "terra incognita" and "extant exemple" , while everybody is entitled to an opinion, I don't believe this is the right place I should be engaged in such discussions. Please use PM.

I wasn't being critical as you already know from our PM's I was interested. Its a very big sword yet still might be under 1900g when all is said and done and hilted. It must have a steep distal taper in addition to the fullers. Its just a big bearing sword which is why I asked. I thought it might be a reproduction of an actual sword. good luck tr

Well, I guess it is time to make the inevitable happen: making the sword !
What was meant to happen originally, will happen now.
Thanks for giving me this opportunity.
