Interesting! I presume these would be used in climbing an ice wall?  Is this a traditional design or something of your own design?

I'm still very much enjoying the thor's hammer pendant, I wear it every day and people really enjoy hearing about your traditional process with the bog ore.

These are not meant for climbing. They are safety equipment for when moving on frozen waters. If the ice breaks and you fall, you'll use these claws to get out from water. These should be hanging from your neck, so its fast to use them in emergency. There are plastic ice claws on markets with same kind of overlapping design, but I thought wooden ones would be more aesthetic...

Nice to hear that hammer serves well!

The hammer has vanquished many miniature frost giants!

Thanks for explaining the ice claws, I had no idea that tools were invented for such a scenario.  Just this winter was my first time walking on a frozen lake, I certainly would have felt more secure with a nice pair of claws.
