Blacksmithing - Forging a cone hardy and some hooks 

Wonderful to see your son learning the art of blacksmithing. Now you have a pair of left-handed and right-handed hooks!!

You know, you’re the cool dad. That is so commendable, our children need those skills.

I love your channel and it was so nice to see your son learning from dad. I owned a construction business and a always tried to have my sons work with me as often as possible. Passing down skills and knowledge to your children is part of a fathers job. Thanks!

Everytime i see a video like this one, where you get your kids involved in helping you out. It warms my heart. I missed out on alot of this kinda thing growing up...I would have loved to have my Dad do these things with me. Teaching me and giving me experiance and support. You are a great man.

Hubby had his smithy shop 50 yrs ago,,,,,really got close to tears during this video,,,thanks!!!!!!!!

Love your channel. There is nothing better than seeing a father instruct a son. It is a very deep feeling that everyone identifies with. Please keep it up!

Fantastic video. You are doing great teaching your son the the joy of blacksmithing.

Again a very simple but artistic hook for a beginner, thanks very much for the video..you are a very humble and modest human .

I think the scene you stamped with your son is very special. You can feel the love between a father and his son while watching :)

Just like a chip off the old block, the young man did a fine job 👍. Keep up the good work and God bless 🙏

Thank you very much for the mention. The video was outstanding as always

Nice video. The best example you can give to your son is to learn and to work. Regards from Argentina

With all the insanity out there with the virus, hate and violence. It's so nice to just sit and see something beautifully made.

Wonderfull Work! Your son will be the Master of smithing in the next Generation 👍

excellent! What a wonderful thing to watch a man teach his son a craft to pass down...now will he follow in dads footsteps? Only time will tell. We allow them to be children first yet prepare them fo this big-ole-mean-world. Bless u all. Stay well.

Love the fact you are teaching your son this vanishing skill. Young people are our future and we need more of them that can work with there HANDS and not just there thumbs.

The best forging channel ever on youtube.. with classic background feel like old times👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Another awesome video it was great to see you teaching your son, he is learning from a fine man and craftsman, he too will have the same skills as you do someday, also noticed that he is left handed like me, I had a math teacher tell me one day that many great men were left handed.

It is allways a treat seeing you work, and making tools to make new things is sooo satisfyeing! Good to see the young one working and helping out, det ska böjjas i tid det som krokigt ska bli!

Love seeing kids work with their hands.Great video

No hay mejor maestro que un padre

You should start a series called Master Class with Torbjorn Ahman. :) Your videos are always a pleasure to watch !

What a heartwarming video in multiple ways: shout-out to collegue John Switzer and seeing father and son working together has made me smile a couple of times; not only the tool is graceful as ever, so are you Thorbjörn☺️

I look forward to the debut of your apprentice's RU-vid channel. Nice work by you both.

Very nice to see the craft being passed down to your son!

Ah dude. So much to love in one video. First of all it's always wonderful for me to watch a blacksmith make blacksmith tools, so very satisfying. Then, what an awesome shoutout to Jon Switzer and Black Bear Forge, that makes me so happy, he's just marvellous. Then to see your young chap doing such a good job too is profoundly pleasing. When I woke up this morning, I had to face a whole bunch of work I wasn't very happy about doing, but I checked in on RU-vid, and saw, "Aha! A new Torbjörn video. Something to look forward to when I'm done." What a reward. Tack så mycket.

It's really comforting to watch parents showing their children how to do things so they can learn hiw to do things in a safe way

New generation of blacksmiths is coming! :)

What a wonderful surprise seeing how your son is so hands on now. He's got the making of becoming a great blacksmith. Keep up the good work, young man.

Our Children are precious. Bless you for giving them knowledge. 🍺🍺

My spirit has been lifted by this wholesome video. A ray of optimism in a stressful time. Thank you sincerely

My two favorite blacksmiths in the same video... awesome!

I am very happy because a young blacksmith was added to the Swedish blacksmiths Your clips and works are very beautiful Good luck

You make forging Lok so easy 💪 Follower from algeria 🇩🇿

It’s great to see you teaching your son, especially in a kind and encouraging manner.

*It is good to see that your son naturally grips the hammer without his forefinger going forward on the shank, and with his thumb wrapped around and under the shank handle. He will always have far better control that way and more strength in his hammer blows using the tools that way, as you know, Torbjörn. Good for him. He is doing really well even though the diameter is presently a bit big for him, until he developed more arm strength which he will grow into soon. Your sense of timing for him is very wise. By matching his hand size and grip/arm strength to this tutorial experimentation would/could have been troublesome and discouraging a month ago, or whenever it was last that I saw his hand use. You are a good teacher, as I have always said.*

THE BOY IS GOOD, GIVE HIM ALL THE TIME HE WANTS. BEST WISHES, RICHARD.

What a great kid ! Well done for teaching the apprentice.

Wow you have no idea how much better the day gets when I come home from the office (I am an electrical engineer and busy has been slow lately thanks to the epidemic) and this hero has a new piece of content that is fantastic as usual. Thank you for making a sour day good again! I wish good health and all the best to you and your family!

Another professional piece of art my friend, and even more awesome to watch is your son working his magic with his father. You have well behaved children from what ive seen. A true family man.

Great craftmanship on display, even by your son. Thank you for the video, always a pleasure to watch 👍

I love that you are teaching your son

It's really cool to see your son learn your job :)

Watching your vids is only relaxing , no music , no banter , just calm sounds of the hammer , tools , machines and your great demeanor in how you put it together .

Oh wow! The shout out was amazing! I really like Black Bear Forge, it's really nice to see you mention him.

good to see the son is starting to work metal as well.. Cheers Torbjörn

Like all your programs, this one was great.....Thank you very much

Bravo to you both blacksmiths ! There are few things more rewarding for any father, than watching another man working side by side with his son(s) : it gladdens the cockles of anyone's heart. Thank you for sharing this with us.

A left-handed son with a lot of genius.

Good to see a new generation taking interest in blacksmithing

you're a great father. he'll remember these moments and skills forever. your son may benefit from hand exercises, for better grip and form. although if he's always helping you he'll get there eventually!

I thoroughly enjoy your videos and love that you are helping your son learn to do some blacksmithing as well.

Even in the "demo" hook piece, you went for beauty, symmetry, perfection. Just so wonderful, Torbjorn! Also lovely to see the kid learning from you. Half expected you also to whip out a set of new blades you forged on your own for the grass cutter.

Nice to see the shout out to Black Bear Forge. His is a great channel as well.

Молодцы хорошая приспособа, я думаю сын тоже заинтересовался этим делом, а значит помощник растёт отцу серьёзный.

Looks great and glad to see your son is interested in the craft!

Wonderful to see you pass this on to your son. Love to see you give a nod to John at Blackbear forge he is awesome!

your son's work was very good, congratulations on passing on your teachings to him, great example, congratulations from Caetanópolis-mg, Brazil

Молодец, отличная работа. Радует, что появился помощник, очень правильный подход!

Great cooperation of two Åhmans 👍

Beautiful artwork. You are a professional craftsman. :) Ps. Your small cat made from angle iron inspired me to make one similar out of copper. :)

Glad see you passing the skills to next generation!!!

Ok, the dad teaching his kid the ropes is cool. But the kids wanting to learn this trade is even better!! So wholesome!

I made my first hook in the metalwork shop at school, it's still on the back of our kitchen door, that was 67 years ago! Your son, obviously, will follow in your footsteps.

The Blacksmith in it's perfect way.

we pay strict attention when we view your video , we learn more . thank you for sharing this fine presentation . skal

HA: There's the new little giant! It was a great fun for me to see you working with your son - thank you very much for this very nice vid! :-) (and a little bit of breathing-sound of your power hammer...)

good to know these skills are not being lost. awesome work

Your's boy is next smith master !!!

Que envidia. Ya me habría gustado a mi que mi tío, el herrero del pueblo, me hubiese dado la oportunidad de aprender a forjar el metal. Gracias por compartir y enseñar desde joven.

Deine Sohn ist "linksmann" ..Genius!!! . Gute Arbeit

Great to see a father with patience to teach his son. Well done!/

Very seldom do i repost on a video but i was really touched by seeing you teach your son to blacksmith. I am beginning to teach my granddaughter she is 7 and she truly loves to use the tools and its so rewarding to see her so happy just doing what pap does. Thanks for passing your love onto your son it really is a great thing. Takecare and keep you all safe.

What a great video no stupid music you have a great talent & so nice to see father & son working together just wished more fathers would have time & play with their children respect to you sir Regards Steve Crazy UK London

Я очень удивлён уменям вашего сына, мало осталось таких людей как вы! Удачи !

Bravo to your son carrying on in his father's talented footsteps!

god the amount of control he has on the power hammer, it's damn lovely EDIT: Also, the way he invites his son to come help him with blacksmithing is just.. heart melting, i would love to be able to do that if I ever have a son or daughter, would be so cool. Also, a question for my fellow enthusiasts; does anyone know if there is a difference in cooling the metal when heat treating? like, you see him here shaking the living hell out of that piece of poor steel having it's face drowned in cold water (lol, im a poet), does that actually make a difference in terms of steel hardening terms? as opposed to just giving it a gentle bath? P.S. My first language is not English, sorry for any inconvenience while reading my banal sentences. Thank you (Yes, I know)

Excellent having your kid working with you man. Great job.

I just witness a great man and his son, passing a dying skill sadly for man used to be dependent on machines nowadays. Keep it up more powers to both of you.

Great to see your son taking up the duties and learning beside the master

Very brave of you to finally reveal who does all the intricate and difficult work behind the scenes ;) ... pretty sure that if I were him, i would also ask you to do all the heavy work... Lovely tool, for some reason i find these even more interesting then making an item for end use... There is just something about making your own tools to make things, that really does it for me. Somewhat like pie I guess. So tnx for sharing ^^

it's nice to see your teaching your son and passing on the craft and trade he will always have something to fall back on.

18:38 He's a Lefty...artistic brain. He'll make a fine craftsman. I say that because I noticed an overwhelming amount of talented cabinet makers were left handed in my little world of Midwest USA. Anecdotal, but scientifically relevant.

I enjoy your videos, and I enjoy watching John at black bear forge.

OK where to start. John is an awesome blacksmith, I love his channel as I do yours. Then your lawn is amazing! Looks like a golf course! That cone came out fantastic! And then to top it all off your son made a better hook than you! Lol!

It brings me great joy to see you teaching the craft to your son!!!

Det er fedt at du tager din søn med! Kvalitetstid med far og værktøj, det er helt sikkert noget han vil huske når han bliver ældre! Jeg elsker dine videoer. Der er noget super beroligende ved den måde du klipper det hele sammen på og sjældent bruger ord til at forklare de ting der sker. Jeg har været subscriber i lang tid og ville ønske det var muligt at subscribe igen :P Hilsen fra Danmark.

Not only beautiful work, but the best part is watching your son learn a wonderful skill and trade. Also your patience with him. Oh how we need more of this!!!!

Parabéns, excelente! 👏👏👏👍

Hot Steel, wood … machining … is there anything this guy can’t do !?!?! 😲… Skills on skill 💯 Awesome 💥👏🏽

Как всегда ШИКАРНО! Ваш подписчик!

Your son is a natural. Innate talent and a great teacher. Be well.

Из пластилина лепят дети, настоящие мужики лепят из железа!

Another excellent video and great to see your son getting in on the action!

the content i dint know i needed

About John Switzer a great teacher I believe, I hope you gave the fine Blacksmith a Thumbs up like I always enjoy his company and teachings. Thanks

4:18 What a weird looking carrot!

What a delight watching you share your skills with your son.

сынок молодец.

Very beautiful cone and hooks. And its very nice that your son is smithing with you. Have a nice day and stay in home&stay safe
