Wyrmsweg

This fantasy viking sword is made with a blade from the Albion Moat sale. The blade came as an unhardened rusty blank. The blade was then hardened, tempered, finish ground, and sharpened here. The pommel, guard, and grip ring are bronze. The cross is banzaipeened to the tang and the pommel is keyed and hot peened. The grip is wood with a leather wrap. The fullers on the blade are heat blued. The sword has a very distinctive ring which is why I've chosen to name it Wyrmsweg.
