This one will have its handle done tomorrow! So keep an eye out for that post. Thanks everyone!!
These are the blades that cycle through my head on repeat. The keep me curious about their past and how they could also have a future. There is some sort of magic in the ring. The balance and comfort of a seemingly awkward grip is baffling. To make a perfectly fitting version, to my hand, would be a dream come true. Until then, that is my dream.

My absolute favourite sword is definitly the Katzbalger, a trust short sword used by the 16th century landskneckh.
Nothing fancy but the feeling of having a nimble and sturdy sword feels safe. I bet a real sharp one would cut nicely!
Huuuuhuhu.
This particular model is the Cretzer by @calimacil_official
Another wonderful foam sword that behave quite nicely as a safe sparring implement!
