I have seen a lot of his blades on a bladesmith forum I'm on. This is the first one that I've seen destroyed. His blades are usually new and flawless. I think this is cool as hell but part of me is cringing at the loss.

Hey Robert, This is an extraordinary piece. Thanks for sharing it. It can be very informative to see from an archaeological/educational point of view as well as a great and noteworthy piece on its own. Well done. Of course I personally have a ways to go for 'Live swords' before I would consider a commission like this of a destroyed sword, but it's really great you had it done. Very unique.

Well, it did get noticed!!! There was to be a second commission, but the blade just didn't turn out.

I applaud your willingness and creativity to commission such a unique piece. Over the years, I've commissioned many things that are uncommon in the modern market simply to have those things reimagined and explored; to trigger a response and spark the interest of others. I think you've done all these things here, too. Well done!!
