Very, very nice! Is it sharp? Can you give the point of balance? What about sheath?

Hi Stanislav ! Very nice messers you made. :)
0.2mm at the edge seems a bit thin for pieces dedicated to training... Do you mean 2mm ?

Hi
Very nice job!
I have one question in mind for some time ... is the rivets on the handle are hollow or that little hole on them are only in surface? ...And Hugo is right, 0.2 mm is almost sharp!!
Thanks
Dan

The pair is very good looking and the stats are great. I guess the edge is 2mm, as Stanislav said, it is not sharp and meant for drilling. 0.2mm is dangerously sharp!
I would love to see one with stag grip and proper sheath.

I believe there would be a market in Europe and the USA for Messer training blunt like this . Very nicely done!
