I am heading to Fort Zachary Taylor this friday and I needed something to wear on my side. I wanted to make something subtle and sweet. I left the edge blunt on this for the time being. If I still have this sword when I return, I plan to grind more off the edge making it lighter and adding a sharp edge to it.






Custom hanger with 24.25" blade and is 29 " Overall.
Blade is satin polished with double hand ground fullers, stop edge and file worked spine.
The blade is .175" thick at the hilt and distally tapers to .1" just before the tip and .08" at the tip
The blade is 1.125" wide at the hilt and .75" before the curve of the tip.
The hilt is medium carbon alloy and is heat treated for toughness
The spiral fluted handle is made of whitetail antler with fluted steel cap.
The overall weight of this sword is 1.37 LBS or 625 grams
The edge is left blunt for stage combat use and the POB is 4" from the hilt.

Thanks for looking.

This sword is now for sale. It has a brown leather sheath that can come with or not. I also, would offer to make a drag or a metal tip for the scabbard if you wish.

I am asking $600 for the sword and $675 with the scabbard. $715 with metal tip on the scabbard. This is a huge savings. The sword alone would retial at $675 and the scabbard, as is, would be $112.00. The tip regularly adds $60 to the scabbard price.

I will also engrave a name or small item on the blade free of charge.

I will donate a portion of the sale to this forum.
