Smaug's Bane dragon themed sword, a new design we created this year. We made a few to bring out to the MI Ren. Fest. this year. We're eager to show her off to our friends there.
This one is wearing a very chic black finish on her high carbon, heat treated steel blade and she's just over 40" long.

Most of the artists selling their works at Renaissance, medieval, & Viking festivals, create their own wares.
If you want to be sure that an artisan at an event is truly making their own craft, talk to the people in the shops.
We love to chat with folks who come into our booths...
