zugabe: it would of course be possible to remove every last toolmark and polish to a mirrorgloss but In my mind that wouldn't suit the blade, age and original production level.

thanks gents most examples I saw online have a band around the bottom of the handle but that introduces some problems: decoration in cern and matching scabbard metalwork... So just a dome on a circular plate better matches my abilities and provides a stepping stone towards a more forgiving scabbard mouth.
Kind regards, Eric. Last edited by Klop; 27th August 2023 at 08:29 PM. Reason: typo |
