Sad to admit 'accentuated' has me baffled They were the most genuine runes I could find online, then I added slight flourishes to them to make them personalized. Honestly it's like getting a tattoo in Chinese... not a great idea. I am proud of the braids though. More to come. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mjolnir Report post Posted February 26, 2018 Thanks everyone! This has been a fun project. I've cut some coper bands (hammered them) to wrap the mallet head. Debating on shaping the coper into something. celtic dragons? an oroborus? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure there's more than one guy out there with "Kung Pao Chicken" tattooed on him. Great looking mallet. Somehow I was expecting something a little heavier though.
