White raven


It is 20.5 cm / 8 inch long, the blade is 8.5 cm/ 3.5 inch long with a thickness of 3.5 mm / 0.15 inch.
It is a san mai damascus with 200 layers, which I hand forged from 5160, L6 and 1.2516. The handle is made of carved deer antler and bronze.
The sheath is made of 4 mm/ 0.15 inch thick, sturdy cowhide.



Ravens black
on wings of night,
Nine worlds circled
in their flight,

One-eyed Father
hears their call,
Tidings brought
to Asgard's hall.

Thought as fast
as lightning's flash,
Memory old
as sacred Ash,

Huginn and Muninn
see and hear,
Whisper all
in Odin's ear...

Glad you like it! :)
How's your eye, buddy?

Not as good as I'd hoped......I have all sorts of spots that float all across what I'm seeing and not much clarity to boot.......A bit frustrating........... Thanks for your concern!! Much appreciated...... Keep up the good work!👍
