Viking Spoon Auger part 2

Completing the viking inspired spoon auger based on the Mastermyr find. Heat treating grinding and handle making followed by a test. I am sure future versions will see some refinement'



This spoon auger is inspired by the Viking age tool chest seen in the Mastermyr find. This is not a reproduction, but will still function in a similar manner.
