Forging a SWORD out of Rusted Iron REBAR

Well, This Sword took me almost two month to make and this was not easy to make it such perfect. A lot of people asked me to make Sword so i tried to make most perfect Sword that i can.

Blade Length: 35 Inches
Handle Length: 12 Inches
Overall Length: 47 Inches

All the Processes are below of making this beautiful Sword:
Forging:
It took me almost two days to prepare and hand forge Rebar piece into a long iron Strip and this was my most Hard forging ever. I don't have any power hammers so all the forging i did with my hands as well as other metal processes and turned a rebar piece into an 50 inch long metal strip.
Grinding:
I make most of grindings of steel strip with my Angle grinder and turned the strip into a well ballanced workpiece. I also
did a lot of hand sanding with a help of abrasive to remove the edges and almost all the roughness of the blank.
v. I made diamod blade type by hand sanding.
v. Hand Sanded the Blade to remove roughness.
v. The Hollow Ground was done manually which makes all the counstruction more lighter and stronger.
Hardness:
There is a proven and professional way to harden a Sword and that is
Heating the whole surface placed into a Fire evenly to a critical temperature. After that Quench the heated detail in oil. Now the steel is hard but fragile. Tempering is the best way to increase Toughness of the sword.

Handle:
The Handle contains of three parts.
v. POMMEL: Purpose of pommel is to ballance all the counstruction and to force more energy during a hit.
v. Cross Guard: A nice brass piece which protects hands, it is also needs to be sealed by Spacer.
v. Wood: Any piece of light wood would be nice for the handle which could be wrapped with some soft leather strips.
