A really long term project is finally done and is now in the hands of its happy owner. For once, this is something I started doing just for the joy of creating but stopped as orders had to come first. The axe was then left on a shelf for a year until an old friend with a healthy private economy named a sum and wanted something special. A true patron in other words. I am very happy he gave me the push to finish this, and I think he is too. This is far from a copy of a specific artefact, but elements of shape and decoration are heavily inspired by late viking age finds , as are the techniques used to create them. 15 cm edge width, steel, silver and oak.
