I haven't finished the chape for this one yet but Sean has really been pushing for a peek. Big Grin
I thought I would take a few quick shots of it and post them for you guys to comment on.
Let me know what you think. The Blade is a Gus Trim

That's real nice Sonny. I like the grip and the pommel and the guard. Heck I like the whole package!
You guys have been turning out some great work...

The White tree of Gondor insignia is a very nice touch.

That's nice work, Sonny. It's good to see Gus making leaf blades again.

Nice work, though I kinda wish the coloration in the handle closest to the pommel followed the darker blue of the rest of the piece.

It does, underneath the blue wire wrap. Big Grin Big Grin
Also in the photo the wire reflected the light more so it appears much lighter than it is. In person it is actually a very dark wire.

Wow Sonny, you guys are turning out some truly awesome work lately. I really like how this one came out and Sean is a very luck person to be receiving this blade. I also think the White Tree of Gondor came out very nicely. Looking forward to seeing what else you guys bring to the market!

Here is an AT2105. It looks like the same blade, though Gus may have tinkered with it a little.
