Sword is an absolutely breathtaking example of *Ugrik's skills and talent in metalwork. Although the fullview is rather huge, I recommend to take a closer look and be amazed by all details - the silver inlays, the poem and all chiselwrok.

Description

My most beautiful piece of work if my opinion counts. I made it last year and i thought i should add it to my gallery. Blade and handguard have some hacks from tournaments and training. Its designed to be replica of longswords used in scandinavian region at Viking Age with small difference - the blade edge is 2mm wide so that it could be used for reenactment purposes. Silver inlay on handguard and pommel took for ages... and my fingers probably hate me :D lots of hammer and chisel work. On the blade are two poems from Elder Edda whith i think suitable for a tool of destruction. Scabbard is made from veg tanned leather and fittings are from bronze - also lots of chiselwork. Im not very happy with the picture and composition but i hope i can use professional photographer one day :) .
