All designs are listed in this post.
Chivalry Longsword
The longsword from Chivalry Medieval Warfare
With a game of thrones scabbard
Lannister Longsword and Dagger
Currently in the works with Ernie, planning on using an Albion XVI blade. Dagger is a hanwei.
Longclaw
Fantasy Migration Period Sword
with a sandwich guard of bone, bronze and steel. Grip and scabbard is flame birch, with white maple as the scabbard bridge.
Venetian/German Longsword
The first design features a Type V2 Pommel, and the second features a Type U Pommel. I'm talking to Ernie about doing the second design.
Dwarven Swords
Based on the blade used by Valiant Armouries Actium.
The dwarves are master craftsmen and while I generally like props used in the Hobbit movie, I always felt the dwarven weapons on screen looked blocky and cumbersome. I wanted to design something that was both compact but elegant with a dwarvish "flair." The left sword has heavily patina'd steel furniture, with an ebony grip. The grip has bone end caps, and spacer. The right sword has bone and bronze furniture, with bone/white wood grip.
Swiss Longsword
I'm a huge fan of the swirling crown pommel found on swiss sabers. Thought I'd do one for a longsword too
Ice with Scabbard
The proportions of the blade drawn here are that of the HT great sword, so if anyone was wondering how the HT would look dressed up as Ice, here you go
The scabbard is wrapped in two portions, the upper part is badger pelt (since wolf pelt isn't easy to come by) and the lower portion is cocoa brown leather. Maybe some DIYers can comment on whether the integrated belt can be made to be secure?
Nordic Messer/Sabre
Inspired by Viking longboat prows, and a kind of continuation of themes in my Longclaw design. Ideally the pommel and guard will be forged/stock removed from pattern welded steel, but I'm not sure how difficult/plausible that will be. I suppose a bronze cast pommel and guard will look rather nice too.
The grip is made up of 2 white maple collars with 1mm silver lining, and the main grip is polished ebony. The rivets are steel, inlayed with moonstone.
Suontaka
Came up with a grip design. I love the hourglass shape but I thought I'd try something a little different. The grip would be some kind of redwood burl.
Lemuel's Kingmaker
Just about every manufacturer out there has some version of the kingmaker sword! I'd call it something else but it's a ridiculously good name for a sword. I may have gone a bit overboard with the crown motif, but what the heck.
The Emperor
This design is my love letter to gothic architecture. It's probably not very fun to hold, and the grip may be a bit too fragile for use, but what about dem arches, eh? :3 Grip is birch with an ebony collar, and a half wire wrap.
