Anyone have experience with any bronze age deepeeka swords?
They look neat and not something you see everyday.

I'd also doubt the edges are hammer hardened the way bronze swords would be.
But Neil Burridge replicas are much more accurate and functional.

Are you looking for a functional bronze sword or more of a conversation starter? Burridge is indeed the best and reasonably priced for the quality you get. There are other bronze sword makers, one very very good and most not bad. Before you buy ask about the Bronze mixture. Tin-copper bronze is best. Commercial Bronze is a low zinc brass that looks like bronze. Aluminum bronze is OK, a bit on the golden side. Phosphor bronze is OK, can be a bit too coppery. Typical yellow brass is best avoided.
