So, Tiji posted something about a hippeis sword and then kinda vanished... we might want to start thinking of our own design. |

We definitely should. i remember he was talking about making a shotgun handle and curving the tip to get shoulders. And it was supposed to have a stabbing tip right? |

Also i say that if we put a design on it to have a phoenix running down the side. You know, basic starter idea, get the minds moving, get people thinking |

Id like to try and keep it historical, that one is a bit too much. Heres a couple of pictures of historical greek swords Xiphos ![]() Kopis ![]() I would prefer to go with the Xiphos, it might not look as cool, but double edges swords are more effective, yay wraps. although we could always pad the back to make the kopis legal on both sides.

Regardless, the design must be distinct enough to be recognized from far away and any features must be exaggerated so that they can actually be seen when made out of foam. |

a kopis is not a kopesh. and that is the same reason i want to use the Xiphos design, it is more practical. |

a kopis would be cool if we could figure out a way to make it out of something other than pvc. But a xiphos would be more practical to make. |

maybe we could do something like a xiphos blade with a kopis handle? |
