Did a little studying of sværd making in Denmark a few years back. Figured my littlest brother needed a new toy, so a cleaver/chopper was whomped up out of some Danish sword stock I had imported. As is, it will shear 3/8" bolts with the blade unheat treated. Yes, since it's a Dansk blade, the Danish God Tyr's name will appear on the blade. Still working a few hammer dings out so better git thee over here, Bawanna and lend a hand!

Sweet Mary and Joseph would yall look at that! Ain't that just sweet! You may have hung up the muzzle stuffer building but the forge ain't cooled down none at all.

I'm trying to figure out what the plan is on the hanging on end of that sweet thing. With the little round thing a ma jiggy, kind of a decoration but functional handle keeper oner. I ain't too adept at this sword building stuff ya know? I just filled up the van so I best get on the road. Lets see Corn Patch, that's a ways south and then a ways east, if I run into salt water I done gone too far.
Man you have no idea how badly I'd love to come down and help ya. I might have to add that to my bucket list, pound some steel.

Edit to add- I come back for a second look and gosh durned if I don't see a muzzle stuffer stock on the bench. Complete with patch box hardware.
Not out of the front loader business yet and that's a good thing.

very cool-- make an english mayor sword omg!-- still very cool bookie, love your shop
 
Well I took off but my compass must have been off, I ended up at border crossing into Canada?:eek: Not good loaded down the way I am. So we went to the county fair in Lynden, just back this way a bit. Weren't much of a fair but I like looking at pigs and draft horses.

Got my bearings and found my way home, now need to focus on SOUTH, and /or SOUTHEAST. I even asked a fella if I was on the way to Corn Patch, he just looked at me funny, obviously didn't know his way around none either.

Fine, fine looking sword Bookie.
