Oh man, I love the profile on this! It definitely makes me want to make one of these! Great job, Matt! I was left wanting at the end though for that cut test. 😉

Thanks Dennis! I would love to see your take on one! I wish I would have done a cut test, time got away from me and I didn't get a chance to add it, but I will be doing a short showcasing it soon. I appreciate you watching!

Amazing build! I love the choice in weapon! Most people don’t know that a khopesh is classified as a battle ax and not a sword. I love this piece! Beautiful chopper!

Lovely work! Do you have any idea why the khopesh fell out of favor in real life and what replaced it?

@Mysticmountainforge

Жыл бұрын

Thanks! I appreciate you watching! I'm not really sure why but it is believed it fell out around 1300 bc due to advancements in sheilds and armor.

You did a good job. Btw, how much longer longer would this project take you without powertools?

@Mysticmountainforge

Жыл бұрын

Thanks! It would take a lot longer, this build took me around 20-25 hours from beginning to end, If I were to do it over using just hand tools, I would spend more time forging it closer to shape and probably go with a forged finish look to save more time in the long run. I would have probably also considered going with a full tang minus the guard as well, I would think it would take 40 hours or so to do it all by hand. I appreciate you watching!

tidy build

i think your khopesh definitely takes the win here, by far. i looked at all the builds, there just wasnt anything i really liked too much. a lot of fantasy lookin stuff, and a lot of ugly designs. you have my vote for sure!
