well, after long last, and some wonderful help from the illustrious Sean Flynt, my reworking of the 15th Century Longsword offered by Windlass Steelcrafts is nearly complete. there is much more I would like to do to it, but am unable to at this time. the pictures are attatched, so please, don't spare me criticism, as thi is my first. I did everything, except make the scabbard chape. I got that off of the scabbard for my strider's ranger sword. I didn't make the buckle for the sword's belt either, which came off the same scabbard, but I did mae everything else. again. constructive criticism, please

I like it, the scabbard is great! The twisted guard is a nice thouch, too.

I hope you won't think I'm lazy if I ask if you have any "before" pictures. I know, I could go to the MRL site and look for myself, but...

I don't know how I missed the original post! Cool project! You've certainly improved the look of that sword. Rewarding work, isn't it? Big Grin
