Love the end result. But you could of save a lot of work by forging much closer to shape. This is more stock removal than forging. All you did was thin the metal under the anvil. But again the end result is awesome.
That's a fantastic piece of work but it is NOT FORGED. Forging means heating the metal to red hot and beating it into shape with a hammer. Blacksmithing + forging. But still, it's a great piece of work and I'd be proud of myself if I made something like that.
You should label the video "Stock removal," NOT "forging!" It's a bit misleading. Still...awesome job with grinding. Looks great. Tip for your next build: Wait to harden and temper until it's a bit dark out, or it an out-door shed that provides shade, so you can see your colors a little better. Great job, keep it up!
I would say he did enough forging considering he cut the initial leafspring blade lengthwise and then forged his blade stock from that aswell as annraled and tempeted it..❗👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Well done young Man..( nw forge) i will allow you in my " Workshop " any day without any anxiety of potential mishaps..⁉️ Youve got one hell of a lot of potential & gutspa ❗🙇♂️
This is really nice work!I've finished my first sword(Oakshott 14) last week.Still afraid to grind the bevel with my angle grinder.Any suggestions or tips?
This is stunningly beautifully crafted work of art! Mr. Paul. This looks way more better that what I have seen in stores on display. I love the craftmanship you have done.
