This Boline is 16 inches in total length, 6 inches across the crescent blade. The 8 inch handle is hand carved Michigan Red Oak.
Oak is solar and sacred to all sun gods and goddesses! The tree of health, vitality, success and prosperity! A great choice for a magickal tool!
The blade is iron and hand forged by our resident pagan blacksmith and ceremonial magician! The handle was also hand carved. Iron is sacred to Mars and perfect for intentional acts of will. The crescent moon shape represents the goddess. Perfect for cottage witchcraft and kitchen witches! Also, a traditional tool of the Druid and Druidy.
The blade is detailed on both sides with a triple moon pentacle design, one side is a little fainter than the other as stamping the iron on the second side tends to "squish" the stamp on the first side a little, but its there! The spine of the blade is detailed on both sides with our popular "luna cratered" finish!
We gather our own wood. Cutting the tree carefully with sharp tree snips to ensure it survives. The tree is blessed and thanked and assured that its gift will be crafted into an heirloom quality witchcraft ritual tool that will live on. The wood is carefully seasoned before carving. Wood is a natural product and can include splits, inclusions, bolls and other imperfections. Carving is by hand with small hand power tools used for final sanding down to a super fine 400 grit furniture quality finish. The handle is then oiled with our propriety witchcraft anointing oils to protect the handle and make the woods grain pop!
