The Greek myth, presented in a different light. This sword was inspired by a song of the same name, written by one of my all time favorite bands. When creating this piece I wanted to delve deeper into the Bronze Age while keeping the blade design one of the Oakeshott types.

Feather wrapped in Firestorm, with a wraparound edge of another flame-like Crushed W pattern.
