5 out of 5 starsThese coins are awesome! Definitely a high quality coin with a nice weight to it for the size. The coins were even better than I had hoped! I'm definitely gonna be on the lookout for more of these in the future!

5 out of 5 starsSuperb quality! I upgraded to Argentium silver for both the ring and pendant. Considering these were custom made, they were crafted and shipped incredibly quickly. The ring size is spot on and I love wearing them already. A+ and I will definitely be buying from this shop again!

4 out of 5 starsThe timeframe from purchase to getting it was quicker than expected. The quality of the arm ring is excellent. Sturdy and looks good for a male. Not too flashy or anything. I wish that it fit better. I gave the measurements for my wrist and it seems to me like the gap is a little too wide, BUT it does still fit and work. I actually bought it to wear on occasion and have had no issues with it. All in all if you are looking for a sturdy arm ring to wear on special occasions or everyday as a male this one is great. I've owned 2 arm rings and have come to appreciate these more solid cast ones. Made to last.

Hand Forged Knives & Jewelry
I first started forging knives in 1990 on an antique coal forge. In 1995 my daughter was born and that put an end to my forging.
In 2011 I dusted off my anvil and started forging again. I've been attending classes at the New England School of Metalwork a few times a year since then, which has greatly increased my knowledge and skill.
My jewelry is an extension of my bladesmithing. I started taking classes in casting and basic jewelry skills so I could make better fittings. As I worked I started getting ideas for pieces of jewelry, and before I knew it I was selling them here on Etsy.
I mostly make historical european pieces. I tend to focus on 'dark ages' pieces, but I also venture into high medieval work on occasion. I do take commissions, so feel free to contact me if there is something special you'd like.
