Nice mix of traditions! The style is nordic, but the damascus and dark wood, as well as the filework on the guard, almost make it look like a persian interpretation! VERY nice! :thumbup:
 
Very nice indeed, all the bits go together to make a whole that is just on the creative edge of tradition. I like it a lot.
