A cruelly edged sword. Something suited for an evil warrior...

A glaive with a bit of a hook. The glaive is a shape that I think lends itself to endless variations. I have no idea how popular they were in real life but I love them.

Simple claw talisman. Inspired by my cats.

Thanks to the helpful suggestions from people I've done a new version of my Exotic polearm. I've
stretched out the design to allow for more grip space. It has a slightly lighter look as well. The original had started out as an asymmetrical spearhead, so part of the design was a straight shaft. This version is one continuos curve. Not a straight line on it! I'm happy with it. Of course after finishing it I've been inspired to do a version that is all blade from tip to tip. A sketchers work is never done...
