A new Sword - sheath pics added post#40

I believe these pics are going to have to be saved to my hard drive. When I have the free funds for a grail-sword, I'm coming back to you and asking for this beauty's sister.

Just amazing... it strikes a chord like no other I've seen.
 
That sure is a beauty!

I have a bunch of vinegroon, and just dyed some leather for a pocket holster for some one else. My problem is the smell.

Did you notice the vinegar/steel mix (basically vinegroon) imparted a metallic smell to the wood?

I have several oak/hickory handles I am going to age, and your results look fantastic!
 
Thanks.

I didn't notice much of a smell at all either before or after. My wife calls me "metal man" because I have the smell of steel on me most of the time so maybe I just don't notice. :p
 
So to my surprise I picked this sword up last night, it's breathtaking in person. The attention to detail, precision, and beauty of this work of art left me speechless when I unsheathed it for the first time. Thank you Stuart, it's much more than I could have imagined.
 
It cuts too! Forgive my atrocious technique as I'm brand new to the sword world.

 
Oh sure--rub it in. :D

Apparently, the target was unable to detect any deficiency in your technique.

Nice cutter! :thumbup:
 
Cool video Codey. Thanks for posting that and I'm so glad you like the sword. Thanks to Camille too.
 
Cool video and an awesome sword! I like your kiddo in the background saying "Daddy I need to go through!"
That cracked me up!!:D
