The blade length is 4 1/4 inches and the overall length is just under 8 1/4 inches.
Unfortunately I won’t have any leather until February. So I’m selling it without a sheath.
If you are interested what I could do is create a wooden sheath where you can add leather around the top at a later...
Here’s my latest project. Made out of stuff I had laying around. 1095 steel (not the best sword steel but it’s still plenty flexible) the pommel and guard are a old stone chisel with brass and antler.
Rail track is a great item to start with but the steel is fairly soft on rail track and you don’t get the work back you would on a professional anvil.
Edit just realised I’m replying to a post from July.
I’m guessing fallow I’ve seen them near just outside of Lampeter. They seem to be really spreading around the south in the last 10 years. We are inundated with them around the Afan forest.
Thanks guys, I’ve made a few seaxes in the past it might be the false edge on the top giving that illusion. The guy who’s taken is is going to make his own leather sheaf unfortunately I’m all out of leather at the moment.
Here is a large hunter I’ve forged for a friend. Steel is 1095. Handle is brass fallow antler birch and birch bark. Spine is 3.5mm edge is 165mm total length is 280mm
