Great sword! Congratulations, Manveruon!
...in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.

Re: Custom Sword Build
Alright, if my calculations are correct, you should have had the sword for at least 12 hours now.
I don't know about you, but it doesn't take [me 12 hours to toss on some garb, grab a sword, and snap a pic... *wink*

Now the sword shall come from under the cloak.
Re: Custom Sword Build
Haha, yes, yes indeed the sword did arrive yesterday. I have been totally caught up with family stuff for Christmas over the last two days, and tomorrow I'm working, so it may be a while before I have time to do a full review and put up pics. That being said, I WILL get to it eventually! SO EXCITED!!!!

Re: Custom Sword Build
Just a quick update here folks: mcapanelli's review post about his Albion Crecy reminded me that I still need to do a really good review of MY sword for everyone. So far I have all the necessary stats on the sword EXCEPT the weight, because I simply don't own a scale with which to weigh it. Hopefully soon I can pick one up somewhere or find another way to measure this, and then I will have the review, plus tons of pics, I promise!

Re: Custom Sword Build
Get on your scale(or someones scale you know) and weigh yourself, then get on the scale holding your sword, subtract the first wieght from the last wieght and viola! You have the wieght of the sword.

Re: Custom Sword Build
Excellent thought - Uuuuuuunfortunately, I don't actually own any scale. Of any kind. Gotta get on that.
Hopefully soon I will be able to get together with a guy I know in the SCA to make a scabbard for the thing, and when I do that I will try to use his scale, if I don't get one for myself before that. I'll keep you guys posted!
