Anglo-saxon style seax I finished recently. Over 17" OAL, ~11.5" blade. Wrought iron fittings. Madrona burl handle. Hope you enjoy.

very nice.... great handle treatment. The madrone looks nice with the carving. Wish I could improve in that area....
 
Man that's wicked looking! can we get a couple more pics of the tip and first half of the blade? I bet that thing feels lightning quick in the hand.

Thanks Scott and Dago. Sure here are a few more pics. It isnt sharpened yet and that will change the appearance.
The spine is almost 3/16" at the bolster, 2/16" at the break, and just over 1/16" at the tip.

So can i pick the angle of the edge? :D man if this was something I could afford I don't think I"d even have to think about it.
