sword blade started/FINISHED

[Firmus4474]

so in otherwords the fullering is executed with use of something like a plunge cut? I know whatcha mean though. Was going to actually try it with a small wop (Gamma) router I have ya know just build a jig etc.

Thanks

You've got it Rick. I've been wondering when fullers became common. Most swords by the 6th century seem to have them and, several from the 4th had multiple fullers. Don't know about the 5th. Maybe Brennivs will be able to find some information.

After the Krefeld sword I think I may try a 4th century type with multiple fullers and, metal covered hilt.
