Sword is almost done!

So this will probably be the second-to-last post on the sword.  The next post will likely be the final and finished product.  Brendan has a few minor things on the sword itself (namely the inscription work on the pommel), but he has been diligently working on the scabbard now.  Here we have some tooling on the scabbard.  This is the raw and un-dyed scabbard and the tooling for the suspension straps on the scabbard belt:

Once fully tooled, he will be dying it blue with a tinge of crimson such that it is the Twilight Princess "purplish-blue".  The accents and raised areas will be gold.

He is nearly done!
