Finally getting around to sharing the few pictures I gathered of the Midwest Viking Festival. I really didn’t get away from our little area much and didn’t remember to take pictures of the whole grounds. Definitely a busy weekend. Overall a wonderful experience.

Keeping on the theme of cooking, a few knew Steak Turners fresh from the Forge. These cooking tools are excellent at flipping cooking meat on a grill without burning your fingers. In addition, they work great on hot dogs and other sausages.
Drop by the rusty Raven Forge at the Midwest Viking festival in Green Bay next weekend, October 2-3, at the Viking house at University of Wisconsin Green Bay.

From the Forge this week, something slightly different, a large roasting fork. These large forks are great for cooking over open fires or even moving around burning material. Large enough for 2 to 3 sausages or even a steak. Great for vegetables as well.

Today’s items from the forge, Fire Steels! Every good adventure needs a reliable way to make fire, and this is exactly the tool for it. Made from high carbon steel, these fire strikers produce strong sparks, ready to ignite  your fire traditionally.

The Rusty Raven is feeling a bit protective this week. I have begun filling some orders and am working on building up inventory for a few upcoming events, mainly Midwest Viking Festival,Green Bay in early October.
Right now it is mainly cooking gear including lots of S-hooks.
I did work some time in for a nice little Mjolnir and a smaller Axe of Ukko.
