Amazing Blacksmith Forges A Wizard 

thepoultrypeople , 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

i can remember my days before the plasma cutter .bloody hard work i tell u lol .but fair play to this chap has a nice workshop ere i never thought of usin my air chisle while smithing but i will be now

I think he makes a nice wizard but I certainly hope it's not passed off as hand forged. Way too many presses and dies. The beauty of hand forged is in the uniqueness of each piece and the artistic sweat and talent of the smitty.

thepoultrypeople the only reason the ancients didn't use power equipment... they are the ancients. No one appreciates that when trying to make a living shaving off 20 hrs. of unpaid labor makes a difference. Live and let live right?

There's a great deal of difference between hand forged blacksmithing and metal fabrication using plasma cutters and presses to do all the labor. I have no problem with folks trying to make a living making using modern technology, just don't pass it off as hand forged if your not hand forging it. Blacksmiths would be able to make a decent living if they only had to compete with fellow tradesmen for customers. The problem for artisan blacksmiths today stem from a citizenry which as a whole, is unable to discern the differences between a legitimate hand forged piece of work as compared to mass produced products molded or stamped by foreign countries or machined in a fabrication shop. Let's work on a level playing field, if you hand forge great, if you machine most of your work then advertise it truthfully. I believe there's a substantial difference comparing someone using a gas forge over a bellows operated coal forge to someone basically eliminating a hammer and anvil substituting a plasma cutter and trip hammer to make a product. Blacksmithing is not about the ancients not having power tools, it's about preserving a craft of days gone by.

ZebulonThomasFilms You are right. People need to be respectful in their comments. But don't you think removing goes a bit to far.

I think he's a pussy

Let's have a competition like forged in fire we both forge a peice of your choice and one of mine and see who wins but for 1000 cash

Yes, it is a requirement unfortunately. It's why I can't ever be a blacksmith, my beard won't grow in nicely. :-(

Sure, I can do that, then you could suck them... Go fuck yourself.

That's because you're a punk. You suck bitch!

Bangley a beard is a requirment for all real men, shaved men look like women, its really confusing...

thepoultrypeople if shaved men look like women, you may be gay. or blind.

I'd totally consider what he did just now wizardry.
