Recreation of the spear head from Ostrów Lednicki (Poland), cat. no. 51. Original find is partly corroded, welding lines are well visible, it was made using at least 4 pieces. To forge it i used 3 types of bloomery iron, low carbon, high phosforus and high carbon. Leaf surfaces are polished and etched.
Low C and high C material were smelted by me, high P was smelted by Adam Thiele: youtube.com/@adamthiele703
