A rumored axe of Valyrian steel (III: 408)
We’ve gotten the final approvals and issues worked out with Longclaw, production is now starting, we should have pictures of the prototype being taken this week, with preorders starting the first week of July, at least for mail orders.
The Needle concept art has been approved. So we’ll now move forward with the technical drawings on it, we should be posting some of that concept art soon as well.

Longclaw is great - but can’t wait for Needle!
Tempered high-carbon steel? =)

that is really the best news of the day.
I won’t have the sword for my birthday (07/07) but knowing that pictures will be displayed shortly will help me be patient.
Congratulations for your work !

I misremember, are these going to be solely stainless steel, or have you guys been able to work out a carbon steel prototype?

I really can’t wait for an update soon. I’m extremely anxious to see the pictures, and most importantly, the price of Longclaw.

Also, if you guys are making Needle out of high carbon steel, does that mean it’ll be functional? Because that would be AWESOME.

You guys seem as bad as GRRM in meeting deadlines
July 10th, 2008 at 9:08 am
