Claymore interpretation

Well, I've reached an okay number of different sword type I would say, but a lot of them do not feel very familiar right? With this piece I think I got right back to the heart of Europe medieval fantasy.
I made two variations to it, one that would fit better in a fantasy setting and the other one, while maybe not 100% battle ready, as it have a lot of ornamental details that would probably make it fitter for ritualistic purposes, is made closer to reality.
The basic model comes with 10,146 tris.
