Mjolnir Mk II
My Work
Surt’s Horn
An elaborate drinking horn, leaning toward Jelling motifs.
Bowie Knife
An even bigger knife – 15” overall. Differentially-quenched 5160 blade, hafted with antler, nickel-silver and maple then elaborately file-worked. Balance is exceptional.
Oak Leaf Fireplace Doors
Copper and steel fireplace doors, to match and complete a 1920s marble fireplace. Some very simple repousse, modern and traditional forms.
Small Knives

From a set of 18th c fireplace tools. Wrought with precision.
Fire-tool Stand – Detail
Detail of a stand for fireplace tools, showing complexity of finials.
Walnut Chest
Small dovetailed walnut chest, with forged iron hardware from extant 18thc New England examples.
Katana
Entirely hand-forged and polished – an exercise in patience. 11,000 layers of 1090/1040 steel kobuse-welded around a soft-iron core. Dimensions taken from a Kamakura-period Bizen. Fitted with a quilted-maple saya to reflect my western sensibilites.
Lacey Cross Monument
A large, contemporary Celtic Cross for a family memorial.
Birch-leaf Fireplace Doors
Hand-forged in their entirety, from leaves to rivets.
