Here is a new pipehawk i just finished it is slit and drifted. Forged from 5/8" round twist damascus stock deep etched then all the oxides were buffed off.
It is 17" from tip to tip and the head is 6" with a 1 1/2" edge the fittings are ivory.
Thanks for looking and your comments.

That is absolutely gorgeous!!

The first time I ever met you and I had the chance to saw a lot of your creation and I was really speechless. Even if I am a neophyte to blacksmithing, I can see how much effort,time and experience must be put to realize such a piece. Thank you for sharing your work.
