Description And finally, it's ready -3- This claymore sword is a replica of swords that are used in manga "Claymore", requested by ~Nekotsume . It was a funny project...

The blade and handle were carved from one piece of wood (pine), the cross-guard also from pine and the pommel from aspen.

No mechanical tools were used other than knife and sandpaper, painted with alkyd paint.

The sword stands 158cm tall, from which ~40cm is hilt.

Alkyl metal paint for wood greatly resembles metal surface; perfect choice when painting wooden weapons.

Nice work But I think the blade should be a little wider.

Yes, it should... I blame the lack of knowledge for my only reference was the first volume of the manga. My mistake.

Thanks for the comment

Hmm. My end is wrong. The stem is thicker. Great job on making this.

I made the thing thin mainly because it was easier to carve that way . And thank you.

Like I've said, I never actually realized you were this damn GREAT at this...but this somehow really plainly shows your skill. What a carpenter the world loses in you.... I really owe you one, and it's an honor to be able to own that sword.

Though I haven't yet seen the final form live.

My frineds have told me many times that I've chosen wrong career (I bake good stuff, I'm talented with carving, I have many ideas about architecture...)

But mainly, I do what I want to do ^__^
