Thanks, Jeremy,

It’s cool isn’t it? It takes more than just practice to make THAT bullseye happen! Hehe!

About the sword: I’d hate to be in the receiving end of that sword – armor or no armor… brrrr…

Cheers,

JT

Thank you Michael,

As I wrote earlier in the thread, that all-damascus steel hilt was a rather tricky piece to make. But now as I have one such hilt “under my belt”, the next one will have to be made in a different way – a cast bronze hilt sounds rather tempting…

-And speaking of temptations, now that I still have that sosun pattah sword, I must say that I am very, VERY tempted to try some test cutting with it as well!

Thanks Petr!

I'm rather hooked on these "droopy"designs, here is the next sosun pattah-blade waiting to be handfinished and hilted!

Cheers,

JT
