My Hand Forged Viking Style Knives
I thought I would share some Pictures of my favorite thing to blacksmith. I like these knives because they are balanced and they are a great all around knife to work with. All of these knifes have been hand forged by me. They are made from 1/2 by 1/2 square stock, that I flatten and draw out into the shape of the knife.
Each one has file work that I did on the spine of the knife. And have a spring handle, a cool thing about these knives is if you throw them and the stick in the target they ring. Yes they ring like a bell, I did not know I did it until I looked closer but each knife has been hardened, so that the handle acts as a tuning fork would.
I hope to show how I make these in detail some time soon.
Thank you for taking a look.
Caleb.
