It looks an object of great beauty.

Will it have an edge????

It's really nice. I take it it's a later sword? 3 -4th Cent?

I think she has her eye on the one that sits in the bottom of our cavalry box at LEG II AVG and never gets used, along with the Peter Connolly saddle.But that is a good substitute.

Great spatha PierPaolo. I wish I had the equipment to turn out work this nice.

Very well done mate! My attempts are much more crude though maybe functional :grin:

Oops, just found this...yes, I have drooled all over my keyboard. It's fabulous PierPaolo <sigh>

And yes Kevin, I covert the Legio II Augusta sword more than the saddle!

There are plans afoot :wink: but I do need to get a new horse as well :roll:
