Finally got my "Viking Sword" done. Shame on me, the blade have been standing in a corner for too long staring at me.
Blade is pattern welded by Danish master smith Eivind Nørgård. The rest I did myself, crossguard and pommel in blackened steel with inlaid brass threads and handle in Yew wood. Bue--.

That is awesome! Did you ever see that documentary, "Secrets of the Viking Sword"? It's pretty good.

Pugio in averse belli.

Great work. I need to get you to make my next sword, if I could afford you (which I can't.) You would have a lot of people lining up, I should think.
