the first problem will be to loosen the both parts again without destroying something. Can you recognize which glue is used? Regards, Detlef |

It looks like a pretty hard transparent glue.
I plan to wrap is in a damp cloth for a day or so... |

looks much better as before but I am afraid, I think that this will be the best result which can be done and I think that you have to live with this condition. Still a very nice sword.  Regards, Detlef |

100% better, it looks great ! The visible crack isn't a flaw, but it gives it character.
Thanks for the tip about the wet cloth removing some glues ;does it have to be warm or room temperature? Wonderful sword. |
