Guild of the Gilded Hilt
США
Добавлен 12 июн 2023
The Guild of the Gilded Hilt specializes in handcrafted fantasy daggers axes, and swords. Each one-of-a-kind weapon (I do not and will not make additional copies of any of my work) is made starting with a high carbon steel blade blank from a reputable forge such as Hanwei/Tinker, Windlass Steelcrafts, or a reclaimed vintage axe head. The blades are altered to my design through stock removal and are then hilted with custom designed guards, handles, pommels, etc.
Blades are hand etched with fantasy motifs, and each weapon has an accompanying handcrafted leather sheath which I designed specifically for the blade . Designs may use a variety of materials, including steel, brass, copper, antler or horn, exotic hardwoods, leather, and glass. Swords and daggers all constructed with hidden or through tang designs and have steel alignment pins used throughout the guard and handle construction.

The blade is 1085 high carbon steel. The handle is carved from West African Padauk. All of the hilt fittings are carved from brass and treated with a patina. I ...

Short video showing the completed Chimera axe after hanging the axe and adding the adornments. The octagonal finial spike sits atop an octagonal eye cap. It is threaded onto a custom steel wedge I created to hang the head. I made the octagonal adornments to match the octagonal handle. The bottom of the handle is wraped in deer hide lacing and a knob cap completes the piece.

In this video I try to show many of the steps I use to create fantasy themed axes. The axe head was formed by cutting and grinding with water to keep the metal from getting too hot and ruining the temper. I hand etch original artwork into the steel using ferric chloride. I will update the video once I hang the head on a custom handle.
