... is this a new project, TK ?

During my own meager research for a few custom projects I found it interesting how
the scabbards were treated and decorated from country to country ...

[Tomek Kowmal Ciupinski]

Hi Matthew
This is a project that I have done.

Yes, my Europe, there are many examples of old weapons from the folding elements from many countries.
War, weapons captured. Trade, exchange gifts deputies diplomats.
Making native decorations on the basis of the beautiful weapons of other countries.


Several pictures of the work.

great work Tomek worth to admire. I like the wood work pictures.
whole recreated sabre with scabbard is very well done, you have a very rare sense of the old style craftsmanship

[Gregory J. Liebau]

Gorgeous work, Tomek... You're tempting me to sell my car for that saber we discussed! Ha. Cheers!

... I echo my fellow forumites' sentiments, TK.

Just outstanding.

The fact that the result is about as near as exact a replica as the historical antique speaks
to your concentration on details, discipline to master the necessary skills to execute, and
over all determination to produce these beautiful sabers ...

[J. Nicolaysen]

Great stuff Tomek! I love it. Very deep curve and nice designs everywhere. Congratulations. Someone is very lucky to work with you on this one!

[Henrik Zoltan Toth]

Congratulations!

It looks like a hungarian-style mounted ottoman blade (without fullers)! A joy for my eyes.

[Tomek Kowmal Ciupinski]

Thank you all, Your words encourage a better job.

[Eduardo Fontenla]

Gorgeous work Tomek!

[Leo Todeschini]

Great work.

[Matthew G.M. Korenkiewicz]

... a collection of similar sabers of this type.

[Tomek Kowmal Ciupinski]

Leo and Eduardo thank you.
Eduardo I always I like your work and your photos with fun.
To be completed
I've always loved the Hungarian sabers from the first picture. They are a bit exaggerated and beautiful.
I did have one with another Hungarian saber scabbard with old photos.
Once again, thank you for watching.

Fantastic

[Constantin von Bernuth]

Fantastic work, Tomek!
The attention to detailing the level of finishing, just perfect.
When I say perfect, I do not mean spotless shiny perfect, but perfect in the way that it is still recognizable as hand made. That gives it life and character.
Chapeau!

[Kevin Colwell]

This is the first time I have seen your work. It appears to be great stuff. The fit and finish, the attention to historical sources, everything. I like it a lot. It is what I aspire to do with my own work. Thank you for sharing your swords, and the information, with us.
