Explosively Forged Artwork

The "Operator’s Edge"

Precision Through Pressure

We don’t just "make" art—we execute it through the surgical application of explosives. By mastering three distinct breaching and forging techniques—ranging from ancient methods to cutting-edge explosive science—we achieve results that traditional tools can't touch. Our shop’s first prototype hangs as a reminder of where we started. Our second? It became the commissioning plaque for the USS Michael Murphy (DDG 112). We bring that same level of "first-time-right" precision to every piece we forge.

The Flintlock of the Trident
Long Sea Service Pistol

The Navy SEAL Trident is a symbol of total domain dominance: Sea, Air, and Land. Representing the "Sea" and the heritage of Naval Special Warfare is the Sea Service Pistol. This flintlock wasn’t just a sidearm; it was the primary tool for the boarding parties and "tars" who fought through the tangled melees of the 18th and 19th centuries.

From the French and Indian War to the Battle of Trafalgar and the War of 1812, this design—captured and utilized by the early American Navy—paved the way for the maritime dominance we uphold today.

Museum-Grade Engineering

Our reproductions are forged with modern precision while maintaining absolute historical fidelity.

• The Steel: A .62 caliber barrel crafted from tempered seamless gun steel (BS970 no.080M40) with a precision-fit breech plug.

• The Action: Heavy-duty springs and a case-hardened frizzen (hammer) designed for reliable, high-volume sparking.

• Advanced Metallurgy: We utilize an industrial case-hardening process—a technique exclusive to our forge—ensuring your flintlock’s sparking capability outlasts any other reproduction on the market.

• The Profile: Complete with historic proofing markings and a 7.5-inch steel belt hook for authentic carry.

Note on Readiness: To comply with international regulations and ensure direct-to-door delivery, these pistols ship in a non-firing state (vent not drilled). They are historically exact in every other detail.

The Inlays: Forged History

At Valhalla’s Forge, we don’t just build displays; we preserve legacies. We are on a relentless search for artifacts that define Honor, Courage, and Commitment.

The Metaphor of the Casing

We house our most precious artifacts inside expended weapon casings (9mm and others). These casings serve as a metaphor for our currently deployed operators—the rugged exterior protecting the invaluable spirit of our nation's history. These materials are not for sale; they are held in trust and used only to honor those who serve.

The "Old Ironsides" Connection

Through our network of former crew members, we have secured a sizable portion of USS Constitution Oak.

• The Heritage: As the oldest commissioned ship in the U.S. Navy, "Old Ironsides" was named and directed to be built by George Washington himself.

• The Ethos: This oak is the physical embodiment of "Sustained Superior Performance." It represents the birth of the American naval power that would eventually give rise to the Teams.
