Robert Burns Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I thought I might share a recent collaboration I did with Matthew Berry. If you are unfamiliar with his work he makes absolutely wonderful European swords and other historical blades. Matt and I wanted to do something that was totally outside of either of our wheel houses and I think it came together beautifully. I was responsible for the blade with a tight Turkish twist damascus, Matt did the the all of the bronze work and gem setting, and I did the final shaping and finishing on the fossil ivory handle. What do you think? -Robert 6 http://www.wildernessironworks.org/http://www.facebook.com/WildernessIronworksRobert Burns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Weller Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 Saw this on Instagram, absolutely love it, followed both you and Matt. I’m not usually into this style of blade, but the craftsmanship of this blade is incredible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Colwell Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 That rocks! Everything about it is just right. Seriously, great by both of you. please visit my website http://www.professorsforge.com/ “Years ago I recognized my kinship with all living things, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit better than the meanest on the earth. I said then and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it; while there is a criminal element, I am of it; while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.” E. V.
