Hi. Today the restoration of a Georgian saber with a unique pattern on the blade and "Gurda" stamp. The process took about two months and a huge amount of effort. Because most of the technique was done by me for the first time! Well, let's get to the restoration.
The first thing I did was remove the "hilt". Then I cleaned the blade with a rust remover and moved on to creating the sabre garde.
The saber's sword guard.
The guard was laser-cut from 4mm steel. After a lot of manipulations (because it was the first time) I welded two parts together and started machining. After machining and giving it the look I wanted, I moved on to the handle of saber.
The handle of the saber.
I cut the handle from dry beech wood. I attached it to the tang of the sword and to the new guard. Next I trimmed the hande and glued it with genuine leather. I darkened and aged it.
The scabbard of the saber.
The scabbard I also made of dry beech wood, turned, shaped. I made the fittings from two millimetre steel and one millimetre steel. Here too it was not easy because I had no experience so far. The scabbard at the end I glued with natural black leather.
Leather suspenders.
Next I moved on to the creation of a leather shoulder harness. I made the suspension from thick natural leather. After that, I put it together. I sharpened the blade of the saber.
I hope you enjoy this restoration project. Please don't forget to share this video.
Sincerely, Alex. Thanks for attention!
Good luck and health to everyone! With best wishes, Alex!
