Making A Vimose Sword

[leonardod]

Now you told me it´s clear in the pictures. But you surely noticed how difficult is to do so many bevels in so small width. That´s why I did mine on the thicker side of the historical record: around 8 mm in the forte. To make room for a bigger angle and keep ridges notorious. I always wanted to know how defined are these blades near the point where the thickness is much reduced. Mine was about 4 mm, but entirely hypotetical.
It seems that the octagonal blade is the one that goes with this handle. Even not studed, there are very similar hilts with them
