3 seaxes fresh from the forge, all 5160. The small brokeback needs a bit more forging, gotta shape the handle up a bit more, the big langseax needs the bevels forged in also but the other is done. All 3 are going to be hammer finish forged down real close, pinned slabs as soon as I get around to it
. The langseax has a chisel work celtic style dog's head on the end of the tang, the creative muse really slapped me across the face tonight
:thumbup:. I know the dog head does not have an eye I am going to make a special eye punch for it. The teeth go all the way around, it's a cool effect, you also cannot make out the nostrils too well either punched from the end. Sorry for the crappy pictures.
I also have another fantasy style-ish knife I did, was too hot though to bring home from the shop at the end of the day, it's a neat shape. Wanna try my hand at some Pukkoa tommorrow maybe also.
