Our customer had waited half a year for his sword and stated it was worth it and was very pleased with the artwork.

Certainly there were lots of preliminary steps, discussions, plans with the customer prior to the production commencement of such a precious sword. 

Our customers sent us the image of the artifacts of Niederstotzingen to facilitate the thorough preparation of the replica of this historical sword.
