    Thanks chiari1 i do have a box of various wood myself but its dwindling down to a lot of bits that are too small so may take you up on that if i cant find something big enough:)
    Sound like you may have some Purple heart or Ironwood...my box also has some unidentifiable woods most of it was given to me years ago by a friend Theo Faberge who was the last survivor of the line and still made the eggs sadly passed away a few years back.

    A few of the previous ones i have made...not forged I'm afraid just cut and shaped from hard stainless but they do hold an edge but most end up in a display case i just like making them.

    My mate at work made this for his father :cool:
    He’s a clever man and only did this one as an experiment :)
    Pretty good I think :cool: 455DE21E-E290-4CCE-A44A-07E5284EAECB.png 74EDC06D-87E0-48C8-A012-D279ED8A0744.png

    Gots to admit, although the rapier is nice, I agree the broadswords are nicer.

    I was once stood in the main hall in Edinburgh Castle, looking at a claymore leaning up against the wall, with a 'do not touch' plaque on it. I says to the curator dude, "how big would the user of that be?" and he looks at me, says, "about your size" and hands it over. Lovely balanced blade, about 6 ft long. I was in leathers (went on the GT550) and felt like the Kurgan! Handed it back well pleased. Blow me, Mrs BS was so gobsmacked she forgot to take a photo! Oh well, plenty Chinese tourists did.....

    I have... A 1914 bayonet, a naval pattern cutlass, as issued to police officers (used in the Stalybridge Mill riots I'm told) two katanas, and a war hammer "at the moment".

    That is planned to increase... :rolleyes:

    Only pic I can find, but aforementioned claymore is on lhs, to the left of the window.... Screenshot_20200524_200612_com.android.chrome_copy_1069x759.jpg
    On a little plinth, just behind the keep back bollardtapethingummy.

    Forgot to say, I made the war hammer myself.
