Hi Everyone,

Just got a Medieval axe with a spike made by an Australian Knifemaker called Joe Zemitis. It's a forged one and och! Sharp:eek: I dont know any names for its parts. It's a beaut.
Joe got two nice pieces I'd love to get hold of, a Hawk with a octagonal shaped hammer at the back and a carved handle... Hmmmm That one is Australian $300 which I think is U.S.$150.
Then there's a Damascus Viking Fighting Axe, single edged and a carved handle as well. That one was Aus $600 thats US $300. Are they good prices or about normal?
Don't have any pic's wouldn't know how to post them any how. But if you want to check out Joe's work, he got a couple of his previous axes on his web site "J & J Zemitis" , gallery section. Just follow the links.

Thanks for the links. Joe Zemitis does some beautiful looking work! I particularly liked the Bowie/Hawk set and I certainly wouldn't turn my nose up at the Battle Axe/Dagger combo either. His wife's scrim work is outstanding too. This is well worth a look, folks.
 
Damian, premium & gold members have the option of uploading pix directly from their own PCs. Otherwise, if the pic is on another site, you can copy its URL and paste it into your message as I have done here.

Here's Joe's Bowie & Hawk set as an example.

Well I'm going to see if I've got this image posting thing right. Joe Zemitis has posted some more pic's on his site. I'm going to see if I can post two more axe images.
