We love the way these axes throw. The jutting point of the blade really likes to find its target. Handforged from 4140 with a satin finish. http://bit.ly/2lJ9kav

You make some beautiful works! May I ask, what was the weight on the war hammer head? Thanks!

Thank you and sorry for the late reply! The war hammer was forged by the Brazeal Brothers and it weighs about 3 pounds.

This is what it looks like when you get a group of dedicated people together for a day with a common goal. Had an absolute blast at the Tong making workshop for the CBA, and couldn't have asked for a better group of guys on my team. Not even all of the tongs and tong blanks are shown.

Finished Ball fuller - 2.25", 5lb., made from 4140, and subdued greens on an overcast California day. Thanks to Jessy Wilson for striking and to Brian Brazeal for the inspiration.

The finished hammer that Jonathan Lambert directed for, while I struck: came in just under 4.25lbs. Hand forged with a wrought iron body and forge welded 4140 faces.
