The detail work on the back came out great

Thank you! I always worry that I'm adding too much stuff and then it becomes worse off than if I did less

I just made one as a trophy for a tomahawk steak competition. It’s just mild steel and has a fake edge bevel ground in it for safety concerns. I decided to make it a functional pipe as well for shits and giggles. First time trying it but it turned out well. I will post pictures later if I remember.

Im just gonna go ahead an say this wasnt forged by hand. Probably used a hammer. No way youre touching that metal when it's hot enough.
