Forging of an Elvish Meteorite Damascus Spear: Anguirel (Iron of the fiery star)

Anguirel - Iron of the fiery star

The spear takes after the lore from the Silmarillion which involves two swords that are forged by the Dark Elf named Eol, out of meteorite steel. In this case, I adapted the name and lore into a spear.

This build is the first part of my "heavens" collection. Which features mytho-poetic weapons from La Tene, Viking, Anglo-Saxon, Turkish and Tolkien mythos. The collection features ancient and rare materials such as Meteorite Damascus that I forge with my friend and exotic materials like mammoth ivory.

My friend Woodlands Forge is an extremely talented bladesmith that works with various types of steels. He encapsulates natural elements within his work and I find myself look at some wild scene from nature everytime I pick one of his blades up. This is why I had to have him work on this project with me. I help him through the process and learn a great deal about blacksmithing .

I am normally a bowyer, so I did this as a trade build where I built him an old growth Yew bow and some other things in exchange for his guidance in completing this project.
