Neliel Tu: Gamuza (Antelope Knight): [link]

:bulletblue: Blade Length: 30 inches
:bulletblue: Handle Length: 10 inches
:bulletblue: Total Length: 40 inches


This sword is handmade with no power tools (except a drill) out of strip pine wood and its full tang. The third sword is finished of the Second Bleach Sword Project. It has been over 200 days since my last Sword Upload, now I could write a book about why I took so long but I'll keep it short.

I stopped Swordmaking at the end of Febuary and started again at the Beggining of August. I Ignored swordmaking and had fun over August. I restarted my swordmaking on september. I stopped in the middle of September becuase of paint problems. I found paint at the Start of October and Finished all 3 swords. There, explanation over now onto the sword. I did several new things for example; I made a pretty even curve almost flawless. I sharpened the blade alot more at an angle. I created the handles diffirently by glueing and wood fillering. I also added Faux Ray Skin around the handles for the handle wrapping. Overall out of the 3 swords, this one came out as the cleanest made. I am happy about it, are you?

Sweet sword man, how'd you detail the handle(As in the handle, not the ribbons or whatever) so well?
