Ragweed Forge British Belt Axe

[ROC]

Nice work IronMonster!

Heretic, is that poison oak or one of those thorny raspberry like plants at the base of the tree?

Love the base ball bat

I got 4 of them, want me to drop one in a flat rate box off to you for a go? You could just ship it back when you are done

Thanks, but I will probably pick one up myself. I have a number of projects (most of which I never get around to) that I could use it for if I have it on hand.

Maybe some kind of poison oak. Might be berries. I didn't notice it.

I have two kinds of brambles here - the Himalayan blackberries which I battle, and then the kind that have much smaller native berry vines that mostly run along the ground but I rarely if ever see any berries on them - the latter are much easier to pull up, but they are everywhere.

Here is a zombie axe I did with a baseball bat handle. It's a 5 layer forge weld with a full 4340 core.

You can see my monster touchmark on it.

I also did the Kydex scabbard

Iron,
Those are some beautiful pieces and te bat handle is badarse.
I wish I had the money and shop to get into that. For fun that is.
There's a fine art and skill in metal work. It's art, history, and amazing skills all wrap in one fun project.
