This sword, perfect for traditional witchcraft, Asatru, norse heathenry, anglo saxon paganism, high magick, Traditional Witchcraft and wicca was forged by Paul, a practicing witch and ceremonial magician, from a single piece of iron bar.
Appox 31 inches in total length, of which the blade is 24.5 inches.
This is a very witchy short sword! Paul named it "Morgana" after Morgan La Fey... Its wicked kris blade is gorgeous and sharp, evocative and powerful. Detailed with a large triple moon pentacle near the hilt on the front side.
The blade has further been further detailed and embellished with Paul's signature "Launa Cratered" finish.
The handle is hand carved Michigan Apple from our orachards, respectfully cut and seasoned by Paul then hand shaped, and sanded to a fine 400 grit furniture finish. Apple is a gorgeous pink wood with a lovely grain and amazing under bark with deep orange and red swirls... It has to be seen to be beleived! Nature is fantastic!
Apple and all fruiting trees are sacred to goddesses of Love, sex and fertility... Venus, Aphrodite, Astarte, Lilith, Babalon... This therefore is a sword for the Enchantress... A ritual weapon for only the very baddest of no good naughty wicked bad ass witches!
Unique hand forged heirloom quality sword by our pagan blacksmith. Paul is a practitioner of traditional witchcraft and ceremonial magick.
Iron is sacred to Mars.
In Ceremonial magick and some witchcraft traditions the dagger or sword represents the element of air and therefore used to control, banish or destroy.
In some Wicca traditions the sword represents the element of fire and is perfect for a weapon of manifestation and circle casting.
The Tubal Cain mythos also has iron as a tool of our will and apostasy, Yahweh after the expulsion from Eden told Adam and Eve they would have to scrabble among the thorns for their food... But Tubal Cain, 7th son of Cain had other ideas and discovered the working of iron and became the first blacksmith. To the Tubal Cain currents of witchcraft iron is therefore a tool of our will.
In Traditional English cottage witchcraft the Fae Folk are scared of iron and therefore iron tools can be used to protect against or control the Fae.
Each of Paul's swords are unique. There is no plan beforehand, the sword is allowed to manifest as it wills, Paul just helps it along.
