Triangle swage

[Sam Salvati]

Made up this swage today for use under the power hammer, it is for making triangular cross section stock, for use in some types of daggers or rondels. works great! Waste not want not, I used the bandsaw cuts as anvil devils (like a hardy cutter) and also tried one as a punch.

I guess you kind of need to see it in action to understand:

That's pretty cool. Triangular stabbing weapons make great wounds because the edges don't close as easily to slow the blood flow.
