Nazgul Holdout Stiletto – Part 2

I finished twisting and forging the blade and handle, so above is the result.  The entire dagger is about 8 inches long, and should appear above at full size in your monitor (I hope…).

Above, I carved my usual handle/blade transition, and added four regular skulls around the base.  For these, I took my inspiration from carved Aztec skulls found at the Pallenque ruins in Mexico.  Above those skulls, I added two strange/shouting skulls on the two especially long cubes I left in the twisted portion.

Stay tuned for more, and thanks for looking!
