Those are the adventures of Mr. Fimbulmyrk, in bushcraft and blacksmithing, mountainbiking and hiking, reenactment, writing, singing, dancing, stargazing and having a piece of cake and a coffee. Pray have a seat and look around you, but be warned - the forest´s twilight is ferocious at times.

First try in repoussé technique on Úlenklawe´s hilt
I had this old tableware in fine silver lying around not doing anything, so I figured I ´s just try out some jewellery work for Úlenkláwe´s hilt. Might not look the part, but it should be an owl ;-D. Still a lot of room for improvement (I should have annealed it once more, to prevent the beak from tearing). But for starters, I like it.
