Recently we got a neat commission from the Luna brothers who are comic book creators. They asked as to make the signature sword from their popular comic book series "The Sword". In general shape and design the sword is a Bronze Age leaf sword, however in the comic book it was all steel and scaled way up. This was a budgeted project but I think it turned out great.


Here is the sword we made for them. The blade is 3/16". I hand ground the diamond cross section. It was quite the task to get a crisp center ridge on such a wide blade.






Here is a cover shot and the picture that we worked from.

So how big is that thing ! From the drawing it would seem rather huge unless the girl in the picture is very small ?

Very interesting in any case.

I guess with a bigger budget it could be more ornate or add the numerous shallow and narrow fullers or ridges one sees in bronze blades.

Heat treated and functional ?

That's about as close to the illustration as possible. That's a great delivery on their commission! Well done.
