Holy crap, I see your swords, scabbards and suspensions better and better each time. When will this end?

I don't know which I like more, the Munich-style or the Fishtail pommel model. Your leatherwork is just insanely wonderful. You truly have a gift. ......McM

I think I have said it before! But I love this simpler and thinner style of suspension! It is elegant, has a higher presence in period representations, and allows for more focus on the outstanding scabbard tooling! This is even better than the last Cluny! I also love the perfectly browned hilt components!

I always love seeing your work Mateusz! Have you ever shown your version of the Munich to the museum which has the original? They should love it too.

That looks very nice Mateusz. The proportions still look great even at the smaller size. Great work and the owner is a very lucky person. Do you have the measurements for this anywhere?

You are welcome and thank you for the measurements. Even at 10% smaller this is still a good sized sword. I can see this being very handy for sword and buckler.

I would really like to see the grip seam close up. I am considering reworking the grips on some of my seords in tooled 2/3 z tooling leather.

Hello
I am the owner of the sword "based on type XIV sword TOTO from Royal Armouries in Leeds".
I practice HEMA with emphasis on sword and buckler, I33 style; this sword is used for solo drills and for pell practice. My pell is based on the "FIGURE 20.--Parry and thrusting dummy." of FM FM 23-25 BAYONET, 7 SEPTEMBER 1943, with a buckler at throat level and the "parry stick" replaced by a "binding stick' with copper pipe in place of the opponent blade, so my sword's edge can "bite" and I can dominate the bind, do my schildschlac and thrust at the target.
I used type XIV swords with J type pommels and it is great for control (with the tip of the pinky in the recess), but I wanted a sword with this type of pommel, similar to the Solingen sword's one. I did test the Albion and the shape of the pommel is very useful for contact with the palm's heel on one side for striking with the true edge or the other for striking with the false edge (with thumb on the crossguard), but it was a bit too long for me (my height is 5 ft 9 in), both overall and grip, so I ordered this one from Mateusz, as I knew his level of performance for both sword and scabbard. It was my luck that he had seen this sword "in the iron" and taken much better pictures than the ones in books that I have.
So it is both historically accurate and tailored for me, I found it quite fast but in the same time having a good blade presence when I am on top in the bind. Of course I have not used it for one on one bind practice, but the spring resistance on my pell enable me to compare swords.
