Well, here is my first finished sword, a Newstead spatha with a mammoth ivory handle. The handle is the A25 in Miks, the blade is A526. Pommelnut is copper alloy. Scabbard to be made by the person who commissioned it.

The handle was carved by Monica Tielens of Bikkel en Been http://www.bikkelenbeen.com, she also found the top quality mammoth ivory to make it from.

I hope to now be posting different types of swords in the future, next in line is a republican Fontilet spatha, which could also be classed as a Hispaniensis.
