Scipulaes
This is a collaborative project that I made with Jason Morrissey. Jason forged this short sword in his mosaic damascus steel and sent it to me to finish out. I documented this build on Instagram with the hashtag #morrisseyhatchercollab
Steels used in the damascus are 1080, 1084, and 15N20. The hilt is made with desert ironwood, carbon fiber, and copper. It is of peened-tang construction.
