Winner of “Best Sword”

“Best Sword” at BLADE Show was awarded to Vince Evans for his Scottish Basket Hilt sword. This single-edged backsword boasted a 33” blade forged from his own damascus steel. The scabbard consisted of leather over wood with engraved silver mounts. It was inspired by 19th century originals of John Allen of Stirling Scotland and had an engraved steel basket with gold and silver wire inlay. This is a Vince Evans second year taking home best sword at BLADE Show. ⠀ Save the date for October 13-14th!
