John's swords are works of art. I've been wanting to commission one from him for years, but always ending up needing the money for medical bills or food or other mundane stuff.

Martin, this is truly the best looking roman spatha I have seen! It even beats Patrick Barta`s version of the Köln sword. Out of my leaque pricewise surely Cry ....

Remarks by Philip on the Athenian Leaders:
Philip said that the Athenians were like the bust of Hermes: all mouth and dick.

Best looking - maybe! It is not very historically accurate though. It is all a bit of a jumble of styles. Early, Late, Migration and Fantasy.

All that notwithstanding, I agree it is beautiful.
