oddly, i was looking at that same sword. I think itll work for just a blade, i may even rework the scabbard or just keep it, its could be worse. Im really just looking for something to demonstrate the basic appearance of a 5th c. roman sword.
I think ill go with a simple wooden hilt like the one shown at the bottom of that thread. Ill bet swords that were passed down were rehilted quite often with the most affordable in style hilt possible.
does anyone know if a deepeeka blade would be hard to grind down a little bit? maybe take 5 or 6 oz off
