My friend practiced HEMA and his teenage son was starting to get involved but did not have his own sword. I made a deal that I would make him one in exchange for good grades (with the dad’s permission).
The sword is a hand and a half with a 34 inch blade made from 5160 steel. The fittings are gun blued mild steel with a dyed leather handle.
I made a life-sized, steel Daedric sword as a wedding gift for my brother who was my best man in my wedding. We played Skyrim growing up together and both have a love for fantasy and art so I thought it would be more special than something like a watch or a drink.
The sword is 36 inches long and made out of mild steel and leather. I thought you guys might enjoy it.
