A set of four Osirion blades, you may recognize a couple of them.

Check a real sword crafted by :iconmordredh: inspired on this illo's Kopesh :D

Beautiful work! I wonder, however, if the "Kaleshite Kopesh" shouldn't really be considered more of an extreme form of an Ottoman "Yataghan"?

Your pommel is different from the classic yataghan style and your blade is more curved, but the similarity is unmistakable.

Maybe that's its proper name. Didn't put any real-world research time on this one :(

Hey buddy, can I use the kopesh draw on my blog?
My D&D fellows and I are telling the story of our campaign.

Just love the kopesh work you made!

yup, go ahead and use it! I'd appreciate if you mention me as the "artist" of the illo and link it to my gallery, but that's not a "requirement" for you to use it ;)

These are awesome, did you design them or are they from a videogame (if so, which one)?

I did these for fun based on real egyptian swords and some fantasy culture from the Pathfinder roleplaying game :D
