The handle will be made, traditionally, from oak, but if I'm out of that I may have some yew wood or maple. After the forging process the hammer is cleaned of scale and faced. Then under a black heat a linseed oil and bee's wax treatment is added for protection againts rust and to create a fine patina.

This is truly Mjolnir, hammer of Thor!!! If you are looking for a hammer for your ceremonies, for bl'o't, or just to place on the alter then here you have a mighty one.

This piece is hand forged in our Smithy using the same techniques as the old Norse Blacksmiths. I have made this style of large hammer in the past for ceremonial purposes and alter use. There is only one other like this. I am now in the process of making a second based on this original. It will include runes cut into the side similar to the ones shown but at your descretion. It will also include a similar handle and troth ring. However, because these are made one at a time and hand forged there will never be two alike.

The base of the blade holds the runes ansuz and ihwaz, associated with Odin. Ihwaz, or the yew tree or Yggdrasil associated with the under world or the tree of life in which Odin hung for three days and Ansuz or the word for god, or Odin. This blade is perfect for your ceremonies, blots and rituals or wild boar hunts!

According to chapter 51 of the Prose Edda book Gylfaginning, Odin will ride in front of his Einherjar while advancing on to the battle field at Ragnarök wearing a gold helmet, an impressive cloak of mail and carrying Gungnir. He will then attack the wolf Fenrir with it.

In Skáldskaparmál, more information regarding the spear is presented. The spear was fashioned by the dwarves known as the Sons of Ivaldi under the mastery of the blacksmith dwarf Dvalin. The spear was obtained from the dwarves by Loki, the results of a scheme he concocted as a partial reparation for his cutting of Sif's hair. The spear is described as having the ability to always hit its mark.

This hammer is made from mild steel and is quite hefty. It also includes a troth ring to mount to a lanyard or necklace or leather thong. This is a one of a kind Thor's hammer.
