Got the blade fitted by making a short tang and threading it into the pole used for the hilt, then securing it with 2 set screws.
this should have been finished ages ago but i'm lazy and school is time consuming. all that needs done is the hand guard, because the last 3 i made sucked but now i have a jig saw so 'sall good if i can keep my hand straight.
The only change to the hilt is the paintng of the raised grip piece which needs re-painted, and the addition of rust effects to the 'metal' pieces.

once again, sorry for the terrible pictures. my parents camera won't take photos without the flash for some reason, and with the flash the pics look even worse than those taken by my phone.
