You know, I'd seen the design you did up John, and can't say I liked what I saw,
but that's just one man's taste. But upon seeing the real Mccoyski, hoo haw !!!!
Looks great ! My congratulations on a vision come true !!! B-)

Can't wait to see it with its scabbard !

Wow.

That's a sword fit for a king, or at least a dispossessed prince who adventures across the land trying to regain his throne. Are you sure it doesn't have any magical properties?

Thank you Matt and J,

Hmm the scabbard... Well I am not sure that will happen, but you never know.
