however i wont make the Leeuwen pugio i think.... will make another type probably... too many Leeuwen types around here in Holland..
M.VIB.M.
At present i am working on an 1860's forged/welded theatre blade (greek/roman sword) which will become a Yari tip since it is very compatible with some forms of yari spears...

I will reheat it with a clay layer to get a true HAMON line in the blade...
might even try that technique on a pugio blade for fun one day.......
something different hahahaha......
does anyone know of extensive metal research into dagger blades, swords, welding, forging etcetera? would be such a stirr to find a folded spatha or gladius!!!
