Description
In the forge, few designs carry the weight of legend like the griffin,a beast that blends the strength of a lion with the keen vision and speed of an eagle. This double-bladed short axe takes its shape from that fierce emblem, with blades fashioned to resemble the outstretched wings of the griffin. Each blade is forged from high carbon steel, heated until glowing, then hammered and quenched to achieve a hard, resilient edge capable of cleaving through armor or shield alike. The axe head tapers to a sharp point, adding a piercing strike to its sweeping blows. The entire head is blackened, a traditional finish that helps guard against rust and wear while lending a somber, battle-ready appearance. The handle is wrapped in suede, providing a firm grip for steady control and swift maneuvering in the heat of combat.
