HEAP of JEEP Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 I don't know what all the fuss is abut these things, but I've been asked by several different people if I could make them one of these pendents. I'd rather be making knives, but if people want to give me money for something, I tend to take it. I just used some 3/4 round bar I had a hunk of, finished it with some copper wire and a leather cord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlotte Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Have not a clue about the reason that people want them, but you have made a very attractive item. Like the copper touch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasPowers Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Symbol also used by the Asatru neopagans and certain white supremacist groups too as well as folks doing a viking impression in the SCA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gote Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 The original ones usually had shorter handles. I have been thinking of making some but decided against it. We have a Nazi-scare in this part of the world and unfortunately people will associate them with nazis instead of our glorious pagan past. A shame really.

gote Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 That is possible but I do not sell anything. I make more money on other pursuits so I only make things for fun, family and a few gifts. I would not give a gift that would make someone look like a nazi in the eyes of stupid people. Otherwise I would certainly have made a few for my grandchildrem. By the way, a quick way to make one is to start with a screw with hexagon head. Flatten it and there you are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gote Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Postscript. Trollkors were invented by a Swedish blacksmith some twenty years ago. She has in vain tried to claim copyright to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
