Heron Marked Sword: Full Build from Start to Finish + Test Cuts

Black Beard Projects Video 6 months ago

Description

Forging My Vision of the Heron-Marked Blade from book series: The Wheel of Time.
The sword features a 1070 high-carbon steel, differentially hardened blade, 75 cm long, with an overall sword length of 97 cm. The blade is single-edged with a distal taper and is perfectly balanced. The guard and pommel are crafted from steel, with a leather-wrapped iroko wood handle featuring heron inlays.

Whether you’re a Wheel of Time fan, a sword enthusiast, or just curious about the bladesmithing process, I hope you’ll enjoy this project as much as I did.

Thank you for watching!
