Hi my name is Jeff Helmes and I am a bladesmith blacksmith from canada. I am currently focusing on pieces inspired by the viking and migration period. I thought as a first post Id put up a pic of a sword currently under construction. It`s an eighth cent inspiration. The blade is shear steel and wrought iron the handle is wrought iron with inlayed copper. the hilt and scabbard are currently being carved.
Cheers Jeff
