The guard is just a slab at the moment, that will be fancified later. For the moment I just want to check what people think about the shapes and sizes of the blade and handle?
I'm not sure if the blade is too short, or the handle is wrong, or something?

its pretty good, but i don't like the guard that much, cuz everything else is so smooth, but the guard is so abrupt it sorta detracts from it, but other then that i like it, altho you'd have to integrate the guard so it makes the transition from the handle to the blade, cuz the blade seems significantly larger than the handle

Ah, I see what you mean - make the guard track partially up the blade?

Smooth out the edges of the guard definately. Give it an elliptical shape, or a shape like <=> or (=). [=] doesnt fit too well. Otheriwise its great

Yeah, the guard needs changing.  I also think the handle is too narrow, and could use widening at points. Otherwise, it looks good.  |

Okay, thicken the handle, smooth the guard, make it pretty and strengthen the connection. I can do that.  |

Yea, the guard squaring off at either end just doesnt go with the rest of it.
The blades nice though.
