Josef Dawes of White Well Arms joins Jason to talk about the creation of the knight’s sword. Starting from a few billets of steel, like medieval sword blanks, Josef shows Jason some of the techniques to shape the metal and manipulate it to where it needs to be in order to create a well-balanced knightly weapon.
