Blade from scraps | The Knotted Wyrm
https://lukeshearerbladesmith.wordpress.com/2012/12/28/blade-from-scraps
Handcrafted knives and swords by Bladesmith Luke Shearer. Seax Collaberation →. December 28, 2012. The knife I welded up from scrap pieces is forged, heat treated, polished, and etched in ferric chloride, a weak acid, to expose the pattern. I wanted a weird shape to match the strangeness of the pattern. I will send it to fellow bladesmith Matt Waters for a handle. View all posts by Luke Shearer →. This entry was posted in Uncategorized.

Seax Collaberation | The Knotted Wyrm
https://lukeshearerbladesmith.wordpress.com/2013/02/22/seax-collaberation
Handcrafted knives and swords by Bladesmith Luke Shearer. February 22, 2013. I contacted fellow bladesmith Myles Mulkey with the idea to collaborate on an Anglo-Saxon seax from around the 9th or 10th century. I wanted to make a pattern welded blade, so I took a four bar core from a failed Norwegian langsax project and welded it to a high carbon edge bar of 1084 steel. Here are the billets prepared for welding:. I then forge the blade closely to shape…. Ground to white steel. The spine is left quite thick.

Repurposed Scraps… | The Knotted Wyrm
https://lukeshearerbladesmith.wordpress.com/2012/11/07/repurposed-scraps
Handcrafted knives and swords by Bladesmith Luke Shearer. November 7, 2012. One of the greatest joys I receive as a blacksmith is recycling old steel that is beyond utility, into something both beautiful and useful. It is precisely this ability that gave the smith his near magician-like status in the ancient world. The billet was then heated to 2100F , sprinkled with borax to eat way any oxidation, and hammered together. Here Ive folded the billet in half to consolidate the welds and homogenize the mater...
