  1. I’m fortunately my own customer on this project. So I get to use creative license on it and I like to make things realistic. I wish I had access to a laser or plasma cutter though. One day I’ll at least add the plasma cutter I’d love to visit a place like that displaying the relics from battles. I usually only see replicas in pristine condition.
  2. Good idea, I hadn’t even looked to see what the profile had.
  3. Sounds good to me. Only time I seen a sword break it was Man at Arms on YouTube doing a replica of Andúril, they made Narsil and broke it to demo what happens if you don’t temper a blade. I have no skill with swords and I’ve never even broken a knife. So a natural break would be pretty straight? Either horizontal or angled. I can just use an abrasive cutoff then and try to minimize the sharp spots. Thanks for the advice gentleman. Hopefully the next time I’m on this forum I’m making something vs breaking it. This fall I was hoping to practice forge welding.
  4. Not sure if I found the correct category but this seems like general discussion. This may be a painful question... I have what’s supposed to me a prop sword, like play/film acting. It’s supposed to be blunted high carbon steel. This is unconfirmed. I need to turn it into a broken sword not too different from the one in LOTR. What would be the best and safest way to achieve this? My only thought right how was to use a torch to heat part of of the middle. Then water quench and smack it with a hammer.
