This has been my largest custom order to date -- a set of 13 swords, 5 axes, 3 daggers and 1 "chopper" for the Carolina Ballet's production of Macbeth.  All the weapons are made from lightweight 7075-T6 Aluminum.  The swords are fairly short to accommodate 16+ combatants on stage at the same time.  

Most of the axes are hickory hafts with the blade section bolted into place with special hardware.  Two are "full tang" with lightweight poplar scales pinned to the haft section to create a more robust design that can meet sword blades metal to metal.
