This is my selfmade single-edged bidenhänder ᚾᚨᚷᚨᛏᛟ(is just phoneticly translated, just search is and find out which anime/manga/lightnovel) character she's named after XD(hint: Elder Futhark)). I wanted to post her here for some time, and what better way then to combine it with a new DeviantID?

She is made of Hotrolled Fe360 scrap steel(GO RECYCLE~), with the grip made of similar material. She's amateurish-ly (MAG)welded together by me and one of my first handmade metal melee weapons. She weighs about 12 kilograms and is about 1,7 meters tall. The point has been forged for hardness with a oxyacetylene torch because I couldn't get a forge big enough. The rear of the blade has several teeth I cut out of it with a hydraulic punchpress. From the tip to the parrying hooks the centimeter thick blade is 1 meter long, from the rear of the parrying hooks to the cross is a just under 30 centimeter riccaso, from the cross to the pommel the hemp-rope bound grip(I couldn't get good leather) is just under 30 centimeters long and the pommel is about 10 centimeters big and made of 2 triangular plates that are welded to a square plate to make a thing that can be used as a flanged mace.

Her centre of weight lies between the parrying hooks, making it extremely top-heavy and more capable of being used as a bludgeoning tool than as an actual sword, the fact that is isn't even sharp adds to this.

Fun(and somewhat scary)fact: The grey color comes from the zinccompoud I used to rustproof it. But the rust which reads "ᚾᚨᚷᚨᛏᛟ" is actualy rusted by my blood. Due to my diabetes I have to poke a hole in myself at least 4 times a day, and I just wiped the blood on the runes.
