Viking Protection Rune Symbol Custom Belt Buckle Made of Etched Metal
Buckle Dimensions:
- 3" inch round
- Cut from 0.188" thick aluminum plate
- Allows up to a 1.75" wide belt
Each one of our belt buckles starts from a blank sheet of aluminum or steel. The buckles are then water jet cut to our exact specifications. Once we get the blanks back into our shop, the process of etching the designs into the metal takes place. We craft each buckle one at a time.
The process is very satisfying and hard work. Creating an indelible mark on a piece of metal is a true triumph and makes us quite proud. In the etching process every single belt buckle comes out slightly different. Some areas are cut deeper than others, allowing each buckle to take on its own identity. Each buckle is a truly unique item.
After ordering, please allow up to 2 weeks to get custom belt buckles made. These take quite a bit of labor to make and we are here to keep the quality work always up to your satisfaction.
From Wikipedia: The Helm of Awe (Old Norse Ægishjálmr, pronounced “EYE-gis-hiowlm-er”) or sometimes referred to as Viking Protection Symbol, is one of the most mysterious and powerful symbols in Norse mythology. Just looking at its form, without any prior knowledge of what that form symbolizes, is enough to inspire awe and fear: eight arms that look like spiked tridents radiate out from a central point, as if defending that central point by going on the offensive against any and all hostile forces that surround it.
Such overpowering might was apparently what this magical symbol was intended to produce. In the Fáfnismál, one of the poems in the Poetic Edda, the havoc-wreaking dragon Fafnir attributes much of his apparent invincibility to his use of the Helm of Awe:
The Helm of Awe
I wore before the sons of men
In defense of my treasure;
Amongst all, I alone was strong,
I thought to myself,
For I found no power a match for my own
