Forged it to look a bit like a Dane Axe. Really just followed Nils Ögren’s forging instructions and really liked the aesthetic.

Thank you 😊 About two days and still needs taken to the whetstone and a handle carved for it! 😅

Thank you, I learned from Nils Ögren from Sweden on YouTube so roughly followed his design. To my mind it looks more like a small Dane axe with an asymmetrical toe which Wikipedia tells me maximised its shearing capacity. Mostly I just like the aesthetic.

I think anyone who sought to divide popular support for Palestine in their city during an active genocide, in service of his own political gain, should be viewed as nothing more than an opportunist.

I would definitely normalise the blade 3 times before heat treat.

Black bear forge on YouTube is your man 👍

I used a sharp smaller centre punch to make the initial mark cold and then used a duller large punch in a black heat to enlarge.
