Custom Hand Made Blade Art

My name is Brendan Olszowy, Fable Blades is my mark, as a custom knife and sword maker. I specialise in fully functional artistically styled blades, and artistic interpretations based on historical design. All my work is designed for form and beauty, while not sacrificing durability and function.

I personally Hand Make all these swords and knives. I do not contract any swords to be made by *cheap* third world labour. They are one of a kind pieces direct from the Artist. They are built tough and fully functional.

While I enjoy making sharpened, heat-treated blades which can be used in cutting drills, I'm happy to help you with blunt swords to suit Stage / Theatrical Re-enactment. I've even done Athame' for Wiccan ceremony.

I enjoy bringing my clients' creations to life, as well as offering help with designs to prompt the owner's creativity. I also list my completed works for sale on this site. You may wish to replicate swords from movies, video games, art, fiction, or your imagination. Many great swordmakers only wish to make historical recreations, whereas I also enjoy wilder blade shapes that have never ever been done before.

Ideally I'd like to help the artistically creative of you realise your dreams, by thoroughly understanding your vision and making it as close as humanly possible to what you want, while allowing the spirit within the steel to unfold. And for those who don't have a clear dream, together we can clarify that vision into something you fall in love with and can really get excited over.

I want to populate the world with new designs that have never seen the light of day in all history, as well as offering an artistic flare to blade styles from the past. So write your own chapter in the Fable of Blades.

Please read my About Page for more about how the swords are made, and who is making them.

WARNING / INDEMNITY DISCLAIMER:

While swords are geat display ornaments, they are not toys, and must be handled with the same attention and care one would give a loaded gun. Keep them stored safely away from children. Use them well clear of other people, pets, kids etc. Never handle them when intoxicated, and never use them in cutting drills until you have first become proficient through qualified person to person tuition. Books are helpful education but personal tuition is vital to safely handle a sword.

Despite the impression given in movies and books, swords can and do break at times, and they can't "chop steel", or concrete pillars, or other swords. They need to be handled with dilligence, and strictly inspected and maintained to protect their integrity and keep them performing. In the fury of battle they could bend and break and you could deftly pick up another. I will not be responsible for any injury or death that occurs during the ownership of use of these blades, including that which may be inflicted on the user, surrounding people, pets, or property.

You must be over 18 and take the time to learn the legal requirements of blade ownership in your area, so we can respect them. I will not be responsible for any legal or tax implications that may affect weapon ownership or possession in your area.

By purchasing a sword from me you understand the risks involved and agree to waive any right to hold me legally liability or responsibility for any loss or damage that may be suffered.
