details on the handle, crossguard and the blade, the runic inscription on the blade is from hávamal, and says;
Deyr fé,
deyja frćndr,
deyr sjálfr et sama;
ek veit einn,
at aldri deyr:
dómr um dauđan hvern

wich translates into:

Cattle die,
kinsmen die
you yourself die;
I know one thing
which never dies:
the fate of the honored dead

:iconme111on:
Kuolee karja,
kuolee suku,
samaten itse kuolet;
Yhden tiedän
mik' ei kuole:
manalle menneen maine

dude, ihan tajuttoman eeppisiä teoksia! *ääni väristen* :)

this is an absolutly stunning piece, i've never worked with any kind of steel before (well, not making swords anyway) but just through years of research on the things, i know a good sword when i see one, and this is one such blade.

it's just so beautiful, you can tell from then alone the person who made it know what he's doing, the patten on the blade is just jaw dropping (as well as cutting ;) ) and the guard and handle just set it off a treat.

you're one to watch i can tell you, full prase from me man, you deserve it.
