Those are very nice looking swords, Ben. I always love to see new work from you. Thanks for posting.
I really like those - thanks for posting your work!
Ben

Is this the sword you replicated from the National Maritime Museum?

Thanks

That is the one, I had to modify the design due to budget constraints.
Beautifully done, Ben. I was confused at first because they look so much like originals ! Great job capturing the aura of the real thing.
Ben, those are fantastic swords. I have a real soft spot for the golden age of piracy and those both fit right in perfectly. Congratulations.
Ben, good to see you're around and making solid blades. I still have the Privateer sword you made for me a few years ago and it's been a real fun little blade for cutting.
