This is Luna , my 4 months old boxer puppy . She is my shed dog, unlike my kangal kaya she doesn’t mind the noise . She gets super excited every time I step out of the shed to go inside the house and she loves to play with the garden hose . The most care free animal in the world , I envy her sometimes

Talk about getting out of comfort zone . Kılıç

Talk about getting out of comfort zone . Kılıç for me has been the pinnacle of swords with intricate geometry and incredible cutting power , also having one side of family carrying it as a last name ( usually a last name only given to sword smiths ) makes it even more significant for me . Just to get the cross guard right I have attempted countless brass and bronze castings with a cruicible exploding in my hand with molten brass . I ended up forge welding mild steel and 1075 , the one on this kılıç was my third attempt at forged cross guard . I have made a heat treating forge long enough to hold 82cm long blade . On and off I worked on this project over 6 months . The blade is forged from 1075 , classical to late style with late style pistol grip hilt . Hilt is frame style with buffalo horn ans brass tang band . This is my first attempt and obviously I have lot to improve on but this has been such a good learning experience and a break from kitchen knives . I will be making more of these in future with my own wootz steel
