I see you have the crossguard in the picture next to the sword. This would have been the most difficult piece to replicate. A cylindrical wood handle wrapped in leather with a "wheel" pommel, which could be wood, again wrapped in leather, would finish the ensemble. There are a few folks out there that specialize in restoration work that probably would not have too difficult a time making handle for this sword to go with the nice crossguard and blade.
