  • I bought this beast with the specific intention of modifying it into some sort of large Bowie or seax, but gave it my basic impact tests and handling assessment as-is before I did the major reshaping.

    Wow, that’s your most radical mod of an APOC blade yet. It’s a completely different blade now. Well done!👍

    It looks to me, due to the price difference, these fit n finish short comings, are more refined on Zombie tools as would be expected, hopefully will have some apoc tools coming my way at one point....luckily your able to mod to your liking....well done

      Yeah, the added value in ZT shows. These are more like buying a kit with a blade blank to tinker with.

    Did you use white tape to mask off the end of the blade? It seems to always take something off the object it is stuck to. I always use blue painters tape for my projects since it is not supposed to do that.
    Nice upgrade on the blade!

      Yup, white masking tape. Won't do that again. Thanks for the tip on the painters tape!

    Can you recommend any mid range Xiphos and Celtic swords, preferably with carbon and spring steel alloy blades?

      I don't have any experience myself yet, but there are makers on some of the Facebook groups I'm a member of that do truly great work. Check out the Real Swords and All Swords groups.

      I had them all. Sig, HK, XD, MP. Sold them all and kept all the Glocks.

      @@rtz549 Sorry for the late reply, my friend. Serious question, and sensitive given YT's evolving restrictions on the subject. I don't talk about such things because I get that $ icon restricted immediately. I am an old (really old) fan of hand-tuned 1911s and wheelguns (I do my own work), but have really come to love DA/SA H&Ks, certain Rugers, a few Berettas and my Sig 220 Match. I suck with long guns, so can't give any useful opinions. Also, I just can't shoot a Glock straight to save my life, no reflection on the brand.
