This is my attempt at forging an axe its got a manuka handle i found out back of the farm.

I haven't welded the spears sockets partly for convenience and i find they work perfectly well any way.

All are forged from old rasps and hardened. (lol the rough look is mostly cos i like it partly cos i like to keep modern tool usage to a minimum)

so what do you reckon?
was wondering if there was any one interested in purchasing spears i will have samples at NAAMA
i would be grateful for any advice or tips
