    Default Another Sword

    Just finished another sword piece (haven't got tired of them yet ) made from blackwood, European ash and Paduoak. The blade has been hollowed on either side of the center and finished with Danish oil.

    Wild Iggy
    I'd love to see the armoury.
    (I'm imagining a secret room behind the bookcase)

    what if the hokey pokey is really what it's all about?

    Thumbs up

    Beautiful work>

    Doesn'tput me in mind of a sword, more of an abstract "thing".
