Description

Refurbished arming sword.

A sword belonging to my group that thoroughly needed work doing on it. Everything but the sword itself, the strap end on the belt and the four suspension rings was made by me.

Hilt fittings and blade refinished and polished with a a new grip wrap (including risers and cord decoration).

Wooden and felt cored scabbard covered in leather and with fabricated brass throat, mid and chape fittings. The thoat and mid hangers hangers have scalloped suspension points.

The three buckles were hand fabricated and use steel pins as they are weight bearing. All belt fittings are hand fabricated from brass and matching.

All the leather is veg tan and dyed red/brown. The real colour is browner than in the pictures.

Several late nights in this piece!

would you know if faux leather is good for making scabbards?
