Greetings,

wanting to share a recent finished Ti Fighter.
The Blade is made from 1/8" thick heat treated ATI425 Titanium, the HT was done by Mecha Mecha .
Guard and pin is 6AL4V and the handle stabilized bog oak.
I put a texture on the perimeter of the blade and the whole handle - including the wood. I like the look and it adds a lot to a positive grip too :)

OAL is 13" with a 8" blade.
Weight is 5.43 oz. Balance is right at the beginning of the guard.

My man, great work. The way the curved handle facets flow into that bolster is amazing. Love the nod to the renaissance era sword hilts.
