Pretty cool, Dude!

Lethal elegance Smile

I like the makers mark. Much more authentic looking than what some replica makers put onto their stuf.

Vale

Thanks guys Smile

Yeah, I saw one that was the same form but had 'IMP' inside marked on a gladius blade, and have seen other on iron and copper alloy implements, so figured it was a neat detail to add.


Re: Forged Hasta Point from Kalkreise - Caballo - 02-14-2008

I really like that....and it reminds me of the Newstead spear point as well.
Fantastic work!


Re: Forged Hasta Point from Kalkreise - Senovara - 02-14-2008

Wow Matt, you make great stuff! I, too, like your Makers Mark ... simple but elegant. Smile

Awesome Matt...and yeah, love that maker's stamp man!

I hate these people who come on here and say things like, "Oh, you know, I just knocked it out the other day. Didn't take long. Didn't even break a sweat." when I have trouble peening a rivet. A copper rivet.

Very tasty work as usual Matt.
