Great work, once again! ::tu:: ::tu::

Do you have any pictures of the pommel? Also, I love how your deer hoofprint makes a sword-like impression in the middle. 😉👍👍

For those of us who are metrically challenged.


total length is 38 cm -- 14.96 inches
the blade is 24.5 cm long -- 9.65 inches
4.2 cm wide -- 1.65 inches
5 mm thick -- 2/10 inches
