Yatagan

[hellize]

Today is a good day!
It is not only, that the sun is finally shinning after this long depressing winter, but I just received some nice pictures with a finalized Yatagan, which I had the luck and pleasure to forge its blade.
The beautiful and outstanding handle praises the love, patience and high skill of its owners art!
Thanks for sharing!

Great Work as usual. Easy too see from the pics alone, how one could swing and wield immemse power in that good looking steel.

Thank you, Sir!
Yeah, I am too usually carried away with such daydreams

;-) Well, not only has the blade with forward mass proven itself historically (just look at the light cavalry sword 1796), but any decent sized tree limb would be utterly defenceless as well

Agreed!
Come to think of it, I do have a dried out apple tree in the backyard...hmm

Very nice indeed! I like this. That apple tree has no chance

Nice looking piece there. Is there a fitting sheath for it?

 

[Salem Straub]

Cool. I love Eurasian blade styles, good to see it here.

Thank you.
I have no idea about the sheath, sorry

No worries. A good blade like that deserves a sheath at some point.

Well said!

that is quite an achievement. Very nice, and the blade collar is perfect for it.

Thanks for the compliment But the handle is what shines here, my humble blade is merely an accessory

 

[scwareuroi]

Wow that's cool, great work. I like it a lot.

I disagree. It's a great piece all around.

Thank you for lifting my self esteem
