Indeed Gav!
It certainly looks a quality piece... Only one bit , I don't like, that of the blade riccaso extending below the hilt line. Both aesthetically & practically that seems unnecessary to me. But Id gladly home it for further study! Spiral |

Sounds good Gav! Any idea of its weight & balance point?

I haven't weighed it J but the balance point is just in front of the handle.

And it does balance up on its cutting edge.

Always a nice touch! Shows symmetrical construction & a weighty hilt!
