Hi all,

I'm looking for a site that sells magickal supplies, namely an athame. There are no actual shops that I know of in Birmingham, and I don't drive so travelling is out of the question - at least until I get my next paycheque!!

So in the meantime, I'm looking for a good website, preferably in the UK so I can avoid big delivery costs

Any answers appreciated.......
Fletch

Try this site..

http://www.pentagram-uk.com

You can order supplies over the net....but they also have a shop in Wakefield (which I'm hoping to visit one day!)

It seems to be a pretty good site

Cheers Dionne,

I've actually been looking for that site - I found it + another which were excellent, but I lost the addresses -so thanx.
I'd love to visit an actual shop - I'll have to think about it - maybe next month....

try www.abaxion.com they are good for all sorts of shit. check athame size as some are about 6 inches total length and thats just pants.
their inscene and burners and crystals etc are well good and its a really interesting site, they are in america but you get your order in about 4 weeks

Hello Fletch

I work in Birmingham and the only shop I've found is Zen which is in Brindley Place across the canal from Symphony Hall. Hasn't got loads in but they may be able to help.

This probably won't be all that helpful, but I bought my current athame at the Pagan Federation conference in 1997. I'd previously used one which I bought at pentagram in Wakefield, but it wasn't good quality at all (I actually bought it from the shop rather than the web). The one I use now was made by a cutler who specialises in ritual tools, mine has a buffalo horn handle and is very minimalist. He also made one for a friend which has a bog-oak handle. Unfortunately it was so long ago that I can't remember the name of the guy... but I know new moon have some nice-looking ones (if a bit pricey).

Hello There!

I bought my boyfriend a very ornate paper knife for Christmas. It's very King Arthur esque. (Well, it's got a bloke in a suit of armour on the handle!) I ritually blessed it with the intentsion of using it as an athame. It's not exactly the traditional black handled double edged blunt knife but then again, the athames I've seen on sale are very fancy indeed. I should change my name to BudgetWitch I think.

Merry Part
