Viking Scramasax

Oh, sorry. I've only been to one living history group event, and they were very friendly, but they just bypassed my seaxes without comment. For Renfaires, they're considered very accurate. I would like to learn to make wooden handles for these. Are there tutorials here? I ask without checking first.

Dag

i havent seen one on this forum, but i have a friend that makes wooden handles and scabbards, pm me with yer email and ill see if he can make up a tutorial for you.

Thanks for the input folks.

Dag

Thanks Mike. I've found plenty of online stuff since the email i sent. No need for your friend to bother, but I appreciate the offer.

Hi Daggrim

realy like the knife, looks very authentic - how did you manage to get that colour in the steel, I normally just use birchwood caset perma blue but any other methods would be handy to know.

Ref's reinactment over here, I recently showed a scramy to a viking here and there was like you no refferance to it being illegal and such - the joy for me is in the making of such things any how.

Just looked on your site as well and your helmets look amazing, I have to do a full face half wolverine and 300 one soon which is trying my nerves, hope it comes out looking as good as yours do.

I have also just spent a good ten minutes on your website, Dag. Most impressive. I'd love to know how you cut and shape those helmet segments. They all look so perfect.

I have been trying to make a decent pair of turnshoes for quite a while and although I have had some small success I can't say that I have produced anything of saleable quality so far. Hence I was so pleased to see that you appear to have it all sorted! How about creating and sharing a turnshoe tutorial for those of us who only aspire to greatness?
