  • See how to make a wooden claymore. I used beech and jatoba to create some contrast in the blade and cross guard, shaped the handle with hand and power tools and turned the pommel.

    What thickness did you choose for the blade? I'm building something similar and can't settle on a measurement. (I'm building a zweihander)

    • @GeeksWoodShop
      @GeeksWoodShop  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      A typical blade for me is 1/4 to 3/8 thick. That's because these are meant for swinging around, but not for contact. If you were going to do even some light sparing, I'd go 1/2" or more. Hope that helps, good luck, sounds like a fun build

      You could try ebonizing the wood. Put a pad of steel wool in a jar with vinegar and let it sit for a few days, then use that solution to rub on wood to blacken it.
