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.

Viking utility knife
Some progress on my little utility Viking knife, 76x4-1,5 mm three-layer laminate file and spring steel blade, nice and slicey Scandi grind, silver mounting, reindeer antler and birchwood burr. The antler will be carved still and the handle has to be waxed still. The sheath is hardened leather.
