New knife I am working on and also a test if I can post here more.
This is a complex knife I am making in my Beorning style. It has sandwich construction with wrought iron sides, engraved and handle of maple, antler, bronze and garnets.
I am making sheath for it right now.

Gimli: It's true you don't see many Dwarf-women. And in fact, they are so alike in voice and appearance, that they are often mistaken for Dwarf-men.
Aragorn: It's the beards.
Well you already know that I love it Gulli. The layers of detail, from the bees and honeycomb through to the bear pommel cap.
I did wonder at leather being used given Beorns clear aversion to anything animal based in his home but then I remembered that he skinned a warg so I assume this is the leather of some similar fell beast?
But the white fury of the Northmen burned the hotter, and more skilled was their knighthood with long spears and bitter. Fewer were they but they clove through the Southrons like a fire-bolt in a forest.
