I see your Wikipedia and raise you this:

Thor`s Axe-the Original Hammer


This article should be read in conjunction with `Two Hammers of Thor` posted on this blog on 17/1/10.
In addition to the transformation of Thor`s Hammer Mjolnir from a stone weapon into one of metal there is a lot of evidence to suggest that originally this weapon was an axe. The renowned scholar of Germanic and Celtic mythology H.R. Ellis Davidson repeatedly in her books The Lost Beliefs of Northern Europe and Myths and Symbols in Pagan Europe refers to Thor`s Hammer as an "axe-hammer" or "hammer-axe". In Gods and Myths of Northern Europe she states that "the hammer-shaped weapon is similar to the double axe of antiquity, which also represented the thunderbolt, and which was shown in various temples of the ancient world."[page 82]
She also draws an association between the axe-hammer and the sun-wheel, all symbols that were well known in the Bronze Age[page 83].
For more information on this particular aspect see my article Thunor and the Flyfot posted on this blog on 24/10/10.

Plus I named it that, so there. :p

Regardless of who is correct about antiquity, they are completely wrong if they assert that my sword named by me is other than what it is named.
 
my wife made the recommendation that I call it "My whore of the week".. my wife seems to think I have an issue with my knife collection taking attention away from our date nights.

Oooooohhh....

Ummm, might need to work on that...

Sounds like your lady's got the "Friday night blues".... The knives will be there when you get home.... On the other hand, if you don't take care of your lady, someday she might not be home when you get there......

Yes?

Oh, sorry. I thought I was being called in for my input.
I guess I'd call mine Echoil, wait, thats not it...

I prefer model #'s as well, they are direct and make it hard to confuse one knife with another as long as the information is correct.
