I’d say! That is some piece alright

What is the blade length and overall length? Looks quite a piece of work. Interesting tang/handle/pommel construction. Very impressive.

That must have one hell of a good bite with all that mass up front, and the pistol grip is a fine choice, all my saber's had a similar grip, as you know they offer good grip and stay in the hand well. Your very diligent! I have made one knife and I think you made three in the same time! Class work as always!

The length of it was around 110 cm I think. The handle maybe 20 cm, or something like that.

Yeah, its front behaves like an axe. I have chopped some beech logs for fire wood with it, before etching, as a test. They all have fallen under its might! (split actually)
I also find the grip pretty comfortable, but it is no way a traditional handle. The whole thing is tainted by my imagination
Well, what can I say, I like hammering and tinkering in the shed and also have nothing else to do, so...
