C.H. Clepitt asked W.C. Quick:

So, can you forge your own swords?

W.C. Quick I have but it is too much work to make the blades, hammered out to shape or poured and then heat treated. I found a site the sells the blade blanks for all types of swords some years back when I made theatrical swords for a production of R&J in Ojai, CA. I made the hilts and hand guards, under the artistic eye of a stage armorer. It is fussy stuff.
