Level I Vs. Level II Swords

When Signing up for a workshop,  It is important to know what your getting.  Below are two swords, each one  the template to be used in the workshop.  The top most sword, is a level I sword, I made in a previous workshop.  The bottom sword is a more complex, stronger, lighter and is wielded differently when in melee.

Students grasp the basics:  Gluing, shaving, and most importantly, taping. 




Students learn how to make a cross guard, pommel, and different gluing and shaving techniques.
