Have you read the article from Hurstwic on Axe's of that era?

Yes I have read through that article a few times. It's a great article with a lot of information packed in and the best part is every time I reread it I pick up things I missed the first time through.

If I do decide to do the inlay work I will follow the same techniques as this article. I need to make sure I get the shape looking good before I even contemplate the inlay work or I'll end up researching more inlay/graving techniques instead of finishing the piece =)

Lord Dane:
Nice. Can't wait to see the final product.

criminalhate:
A little bit more done. I still need to level all my angles out so both sides are equal but progress is still progress.

Some more Grinding Left Side



Some more Grinding Right Side
