A knightly sword inspired by some museum models.
I built this sword like a real war sword with a strong blade, but it's made as a modern ceremonial sword.
The pommel is pierced by two cavities gathering sand: in the first cavity, sand brought back by a friend in 2004 after a pilgrimage of the Camino de Santiago from the steps of the Puy en Velay Cathedral (France). In the second cavity, sand from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.
The second side of the sword is empty of engraving work.
The engravings are made with hand chisels.
