Re: Dishing, how do you do it?
The little bit I do anymore is with a stump and mallets I got from Ironwood here on the Archive (at that time, I was local to him).

An axe should be (by tradition) named after a troll-wife or giantess. Drop me an idea of colors or other ideas how you want it to be known, I can get you a name :wink: Let me know what era of persona, and I can translate it into runes (period correct, not all elder) and snail mail you a runic copy.
