Good day everyone!


Got used to the taste of making viking axes the last time, and I couldn't stop myself to make a few more.
All are forged of 5160 and have full grind scandi edges.
Hope you will like these 3 little piggies :)

Man, those are cool!

Question about your procedure. Are you hot slitting the eye and drifting? Milling? I assume you are not wrapping and welding?

Thanks,
Darcy:)

Thanks. :)
I am wrapping and welding only larger damascus axes, which I can not make otherwise. That it really hard you know.
With these I cheat a bit :D I drill a few 12 mm holes into it, than I open the eye out when it is hot with chisels and rods.
 
Thanks for the reply. Good work:thumbup: If I wasn't a starving bladesmith myself, I'd buy one of these in a heartbeat:D

Yeah, I know how it is all too well, my 14 kids haven't eaten in a week, neither :)

Nah, an eternity of toil and suffering is well worth a moment of heavenly pleasure ;)
