Alessio "Alex" Salsi is a very talented Belgian knifemaker with Italian roots. Everything is made by him in a small shed, with basic tools. Only the steel was not forged by him, the blade of the sword was forged by German "Damascus Wizzard" Achim Wirtz.

I already own quite a lot of his knives, but wanted to show you "Swordsmen" these two. I posted them already in the "custom knives" subforum.

First is a Viking Dagger with acessories (box, sheath & belt):

That is f'ing gorgeous! Congrats! :eek::thumbup:

Grumble... stupid firewall, I'll have to take a look when I get home.
 
Okay I can see them finally. The leatherwork and pattern welding are both nicely done for sure.
