Twelve and a half inches, on a full one-inch handle, finished with a carnelian sphere rather than a point. Carnelian is a translucent orange-red chalcedony coloured by iron oxide, and one of the oldest worked stones on record — carnelian beads turn up in Indus Valley sites four and a half thousand years old. A sphere sits differently in the hand from a point, and reads differently in a room.
What is in the handle
Every sword Tom makes is built the same way: over four hundred crushed power crystals, seven meteorites, sacred volcanic material, waters gathered from Kailash to Antarctica, eighteen star elixirs and seven planetary elixirs — bound in selenite and sealed inside the handle. Once it is wrapped, none of it is visible again. More about how they are made.
Before you buy. Selenite is water-soluble and soft — softer than a fingernail in places. It does not want damp cloths, direct sun or a hot car. Please read care and handling first; it takes two minutes and it is the difference between a piece that lasts and one that does not.
