1. Peter Johnsson Vorpal 2014 XIV, probably my favorite sword ever, a 31 inch blade with a width of 3.5 inches, it is unique in its handling unlike any other piece ive ever had before or since, lapiz lazuli mounted on gold on both the pommel and eyes of the guard 2. Robert Moc Deus Meus, snake skin grip (really soft contrary to what i thought it would feel like), some of the most clean engravings on the blade on both sides, and a beautifully historical scabbard with a lovely stitched fabric lining and enameled pommel 3. Mateusz Sulowski type XXII Dresden sword with byknives made by todworkshop, based on an original piece attributed to have been owned by Heinrich IV of Saxony in the 1500s currently housed in the Dresden Historisches Museum. 46.6" ova, 35" blade, 3.2" width, 5mm thickness at base, 4.3" pob, 8.6" grip, weight of 4.1 lbs, very close recreation to the original

Wish I could take photos a quarter as nice as DBK or Kopciuch. Surprised you're not holding the #1 spot for the Fetter Lane. I also wish I could hold myself down to a smaller collection, but it's nice to have the cheaper swords to just take out back and cut bottles/mats.

This is so very true. I've considered selling everything that I haven't had custom work on. Some are hard to part with. I don't know how you do it. I'm too emotionally attached, I think.
