Wow.. I don't usually "take" to modern work, but this is extraordinary in some respects. I like the minimalist on the hilt. But I think the pommel cap is especially special (yuk yuk). It looks all brass, no chrome. But the "engraving" seems to be raised relief like the background it sits on top of. In that case it may not be technically "engraving" at all, more like hammered/punch work. The spaced punch depressions that define the background on the pommel butt are unusual and artistically effective.
