Ingvarr, I have done this about 6-7 years ago out of steel and while they were popular they also were heavy. That is for both baskit hilt....there is still one floting around out there....and with greatsword hilts....one or two even went to europe....lol Here is a photo of mine I still use.. It is s...

Stefhan

Karl Helweg and Lucian Ro, I will look in to the split center but it might work better with a larger center ring say 1 1/2" that is a can due with no price difference. I have been thinking of offering this size as well any way as there has been a few people who have asked. Stanless......not so ...

Stefhan

So here is two ideas for katz hilts I knocked together today. Thanks to some prompting from another thread. These hilts as shown in the photos are low profile and should not be more than 1/2" wider than a gauntlet holding around the handle. Let me know what you think! Katz 1 Socket 1 Â¼â€

The first baskit is 1lbs 11oz the second is 1lbs 13oz.

Dagonet, I have two way of doing them (that I will sale) and both are strong mounts. 1 1/4" with a screw to tighten and another that clamps that can be made larger. I hate plumber clamps......breaking hate full things..... I will post a photo of my hilt later today that has gone through several...

Stefhan

Hello all.......... Well with these hilts you get a trade off of look vs. weight but not as much as it would look like. Let me get these to the scale in the next day or two and i will let you know how much they weigh. What puts it on is the large leaves i use for looks. If I go with all bar stock it...

Stefhan

I am trying to keep the price as low as I can but that will be determend from one project to the next. One way I want to do this is and...

Stefhan

Dietrich, "Simply adding a knob half way through the arc of the S tines seems like a way to reduce the hazard." If I can find an old one I did this with I will post a photo. I did not like how it turned out it looked funky....in a bad way... "If the cross hilt is not much larger than ...
