Here she is. A custom German Bastard Sword made for a steel on steel fighter on the West Coast. It has a custom 36" blade that is diamond ground with a polished out fuller. The guard is made from 3 pieces all forged and welded together. The pommel was hand spiral faceted.

Any comments? I would love to hear what you think.
NICE!!!!!!!!
I think that there is one very lucky fellow out on the West Coast! ;D
knowing the prices of custom blades this is one sweet sword (green w/envy). Looks well made, heavy but hopefuly well balanced
That's a sword to be proud of, A work of beauty!
very nice
Geez.. what is that thing.. a cross between a grossmeisser and a sweihander... I'm very jealous... so would lots of the other people in the german guild in St Louis.
Sweet! THAT is one nice blade... i like the twisted hilt.
