This sword is based on "ring" swords finds in
Central Europe (Switzerland and Czech Republic) and Great Britain. The blade
was composed of central pattern welded core with
straight lines pattern
and welded-in steel edges. The pommel
and guard are decorated with inlayed brass wire creating a thunderbolt
decoration. Both fittings were then darkened (dark blued) using fire and
oil. The sword
was made by master smith Richard Kazda of the ArmArt company. The whole
sword-making process was based on the original procedures, involving
only manual work. Basic historical materials and procedures were used in
the process.
