Sword Making Tutorial Make Your Own Gladius
#27
first thing seems to me to be important when making a sword or anything like that, would be to research the sword, to find the proper one for the time period of your recreation,..... before starting to visualise or take pictures with your mind. If you don't do the research, where will you be after hours and hours of work, when your art piece (the sword) is unusable in (for example) a 1st century AD recreation?
