Hello Udo,

Very nicely crafted and complete example - congrats!

What kind of gem(?) is set at the pommel end?

The sheath is made from leather.
It's wood, isn't it?

Yes Kai, the sheath looks wooden to my eyes as well.

yes, it is wood, sorry for the wrong statement. And there is no gem at the end of the pommel, just a piece of brass to fix the blade
