Hello César,
I like it as much as the Mainz, the thing is that the result is not as spectacular because the original sword is not as spectacular. I have really liked that the ornaments at the tip are not made of cut metal sheet, instead you have made them as in the orginal from a thick string opened. Again a well sorted and pleasant work.
By the way: Portonovo sword, Pompeii gladius, Kalkriese sword, Tiberio gladius, Mainz sword... this looks like the "Idus Martias"
