The Story
This sword was commissioned as a wedding gift for the groom from the bride and their friends. The groom is a huge Dungeon and Dragons fan and dungeon master. All of the characters he has played are from the same bloodline, which means every one of them has carried the ancestral hand and a half sword Vileselencer. The Elvish script on the blade reads “Ever vigilant against the dark”. I love bringing swords to life especially ones that have a lot of meaning behind them.
This project pushed me as a swordsmith to further expand my skillset by learning how to set gemstones.
