Forging an epic fantasy sword, the complete movie
Forging an epic fantasy sword, the complete movie. The sword is made of pattern welded steel is has 432 layers, 1. 2767 45NiCrMo16 and 1. 2842 90MnCrV8 steel. These two steels give a very good contrast but can be a bit tricky to harden as one of them is a air hardening steel. The result is a very strong and hardhitting blade, the sword will be Raven themed, the final blade length will be around 1 meter, 5 cm at base. The black crow crossguard is made from leaf spring, brazed with bronze lines. This sword is made in commission, and is a unique piece the winged guard is a special request from the customer, for questions about commissions and or prices mail me at The handle is build up from different parts, 2 bolsters and 2 wood handle pieces. The upper handle piece is wire wrapped, I use thick wire for this, as I like the rugged less mechanical look of it in comparison with thin silver wire. The bottom one is leather wrapped. The sculptured pommel is made out of two pieces
