  1. I had an idea about this. what if one were to forge weld four "L" bent strips of steel onto the steel centre, like so: '> (made by swordandsheild) so that the flats were parallel to the centre, and then spit these strips somehow, so that you had eight flanges. then perhaps hand sharpen them? i know in this picture it is simply MIG welded, but i think this could be forge welded, with a bit of careful thinking. anyway, you get my point. do that, then "somehow" split the four flanges to get eight, sharpen them, yada yada.
  2. scrimshaw isn't hard. the traditional idea was that it was something for sailors to do at sea. just pencil on some design, get it perfect and use the flat tip of a penknife to engrave. at least that's what ive been doing. will post pics soon.
  3. not to be pedantic about spending quality time with grandchildren but i think you will find that these are war axes and not battle axes battle axes are much bigger.
  4. I, personally am only an ameture at best but even I can see the fine workmanship in this blade. I don't think I could ever bring myself to use it.
