Hi guys,
This sword has a forged 1075 14.75" blade, with a hardwood wrapped handle. It's been left rough, with hammermarks and file marks still on it. It's not pretty (although I do think it has graceful lines), it's meant to be used. I cleared some land with it, and it was a breeze. No hot spots, it's light and nimble, did the job just fine. Since it's a working tool, it's carried in an over the shoulder baldric rig; easy to take off and put back on. As always, I appreciate you folks looking at my work, and all comments are welcomed.
