I have for sale these two Dane axes.
as modelled by my bearded Dwarven assistant (6 foot in his logging boots)

I got the distinct idea that there was a want for lighter Dane axes, so I have made these ones into really fast light axes...
the heads weigh under 1.5lb .
The axes are priced at £280 each.

Wow, really handsome axes, and with heads weigh and dimensions they must be really terrifying weapons....

Congrats.

What wood are handles, BTW? Interesting color.

Thanks,
The handles are fire blackened ash. rubbed in linseed oil.
I have taken to this finish as a standard because i like it and because I find that i tend to mess up uncoloured ash when my grubby blacksmiths hands caress it.

They are frightening ... I think, Sweeny Todd has a serious competitor :surprised: :eek:

Lovely work Owen, I really like the work you have been putting into axes of late and some really good stuff is coming out of the effort.

I also want a poster of that picture for the workshop wall when are you doing the limited print run?
