Napleonic Officer's Saber

My wife had the pleasure, today, of "Sabering" a bottle of Champagne ,at an event, with an authentic Officer's Saber-note the original inscriptions- those who can read it.. lol.

Neato!

Another big one

Today I make another of the big ones. This one with Lacewood handles.

And, now for some fine-sanding and the 1st, light coat of Tung Oil.
