Introduksjon:
La meg presentere Jarnfjǫðrin - Jernfjøren!
Forkledd som vandreren "Grimnir" - fortalte Odin den unge Agnarr - sønn av Kong Hraudung om gudens to følgesvenner. Han fortalte den unge prinsen om de to ravnene - Hugin og Munin; hvilket hver dag flyr over hele verden og bringer nytt fra langt og fjernt tilbake til ham.
Gammel Nordisk:
Huginn ok Munin
fljúga hverjan dag
Jörmungrund yfir;
óumc ek of Hugin
at hann aftr né comiþ,
þó siámc meir um Munin.
Moderne Norsk:
Hugin og Munin flyr hver dag,
over den veldige jord.
Jeg frykter for Hugin,
at han ikke kommer tilbake,
dog frykter jeg mer for Munin.
Ref. Gríminsmál, vers 20.
Fra den private samlingen til en generøs lokal kjenning fant denne kilen sin vei inn i mitt eie. Ved mine hender og vilje har jeg gitt den nytt liv og nytt formål. Gjennom ild og olje har jeg hamret den, anløpt den - og kronet den med jordens reneste gull, og det vakreste meteoritt jern fra stjernehvelven. Uverdsatt gjennom flere livstider er den endelig gjennfødt, ny og nobel! La meg presentere Fornkili - Bergkløyveren!

Introduction:
Disguised as the wanderer "Grimnir" - the god Odin once told the young Agnarr - son of King Hraudung about the god's two companions.
He told the young prince about the two ravens - Hugin and Munin; which every single day flies all over the earth and brings news and tidings back with them.
Grimnir (Odin) said the following:
Old Norse:
Huginn ok Munin
fljúga hverjan dag
Jörmungrund yfir;
óumc ek of Hugin
at hann aftr né comiþ,
þó siámc meir um Munin.
Modern English:
Hugin and Munin
fly each day
over the spacious earth.
I fear for Hugin,
that he come not back,
yet more anxious am I for Munin.
As I was - a while back - asked to create a knife based on Hugin and Munin, I came up with the concept of an "Iron Feather" as I thought it fitting.
I formed the blade edge to curve more or less identical to that of the upper beak of a common raven, and gave the tip a bit of a broken back as to give it a bit more of an aggressive point as well as a slight reference back to the more traditional seaxes.
I forged the pattern welded steel in a very high layer count in order to crate something similar to fine lines as seen in feathers. When observed in sunlight - the blade displays a shimmering almost 3d-effect.
Description - blade:
The blade is in two bars 1056 layers of folded and twisted farrier's rasps and 15n20 steel, engraved and inlaid with copper and 24kt gold.
Hardness at edge: 58 HRC
Description - handle:
The handle is in stabilized black Hornbeam, with a bolster in Inconel 718 -engraved in a relief w. inlaid copper and gold - as well as the names of Hugin and Munin on each side.
Description - sheath:
The sheath is in 4 layers of 2mm thick leather with a frame of hand cut and brightly polished brass tightly sew using black Tiger Thread. A leather strap holds the knife firmly in the sheath.
