Greetings everyone. I haven't posted for a while; I've been burning the proverbial midnight oil to try to catch up on orders and I'm still a little behind. Here's a few pics of recent stuff that's come out of the shop. Questions/comments welcome. Thanks for looking.

Oooh, I like the baselard!  Can you tell us more about it?

Hi Scott.
Sure. It is one-piece of 3/16" thick 1095 high carbon steel with a blade width of 1.5" and a blade length of 12". Overall length is about 17". The grip scales are crotch-cut black walnut and the pins are brass. The sheath is 9oz. veggie tanned leather with a medium brown dye applied. The blade is differentially heat treated with a harder edge and softer spine. The tang/hilt is annealed.
I've still got quite a lot of this black walnut. It is absolutely gorgeous stuff and the photos just doesn't do it justice.

That falchion is absolutely fantastic. Is it inspired by an original?
Wounds of flesh a surgeons skill may heal...
But wounded honor is only cured with steel.
We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves.
Each of us should please his neighbor for his good ,to build him up.
Romans 15:1-2
