Blacksmithing : Forging a Copper And Stainless Steel Ladle - The Forge 

Who would have though a blacksmith video could be so relaxing to watch.

Perfect. From start to finish.❤🖤

Riveting watch! Beautiful job chaps!

Especially liked watching the copper bowl being made

Great craftsmanship, with the hammer as well as the camera. Absolutely beautiful

Just love that natural soundtrack. 😊 Lovely work again guys!

I really enjoyed seeing the ladle take shape, fantastic camera work too.

Wow! 🤩 I love these videos. It’s more like documentaries than project videos. Awesome!

A beautiful video about a beautiful product.

Taking a kitchenware class in September and your video has got me extra interest in cooper kitchen utensils…thanks Jacqueline-Brookfield, NH/USA

These videos are amazing. I am not even into blacksmithing, i just really like the story being told.

Beautiful work, love the level of care and craftsmanship in your work. Well done!

That's a really nice and relaxing video. It's nice to see the whole process with details and explanation. Specially for someone who wants to learn blacksmthing as a hobby.

This is so good! Story, Product, film, everything! Thank you!

Wonderful to see an hear what goes into these beautiful pieces.

This video has been so helpful. Really want to say a huge thanks to the makers & the smiths involved. On a making journey myself where inevitably I will be working full time at my smith work. It's not going to be easy but I've a stout heart and prepared to put the work in. This is encouragement. Thanks again lads. Stay safe out there.

Another brilliant video guys!!

Beautiful piece of work, it's a privilege to see you gentlemen at work.

As a maker myself... that smirk @20:24 speaks to me 👍 love you videos keep it up!!

Really great stuff guys. Thank you for sharing!

Nice! Now I want to try it myself! 👍❤

"but, we're blacksmiths"...love that line.

Another fascinating video. Cheers chaps!👍🏻

Great video - I can see the similarities to spoon carving - those facets are wonderful on the bowl and the handle. 👍

Beautiful video. Well made ladles . Copperis a wonderful material to work with. Loved the tools u used👍👍👍👍

Absolutely love this stuff. Keep it up broski

excellent job on the content and presentation. To me, blacksmithing is on a back shelf as a highly satisfying hobby. I do enjoy hearing you present a different point of view

You are an inspiration! Amazing with a camera and with your work most important. Watching some of your latest works helped jump out of my comfort zone and film a project of my own that I uploaded to my own channel not to long ago! Thanks, you are that man!

Awesome work you guys!

Fantastic video and great product. It's so interesting to here the stories behind these projects and the history of blacksmithing. Amazing work guys!

🤤 so satisfying!

Awesome work!!! Enjoyed the video! Thanx.

Awesome video thank you

One of the best forging videos I’ve seen in a long time 👏🏻👏🏻 really enjoyed watching that

What a stunning piece of work. I now have to redesign my kitchen to fit some of these in.

Beautiful 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Fantastic stuff!

Just beautiful.

Amazing!

Amazing , would love to go on one of your courses Alex.

Awesome stuff! 😃👌🏻👍🏻👊🏻

Really enjoyed watching it all come together. Great explanation on the entire process. Keep rocking it out.

Another absolutely fantastic video. I really enjoy this type of video - a nice three theatre piece! So calm and relaxing but packed with information about the craft and beautiful explanations to how it all comes together visually! Another great story well told.

Im really enjoying these videos. It nice to see the passion behind the products. Ive always wondered about forging stainless, does it loose any of its stainless properties in the process?

interesting... I used to form medieval elbows, knees and such. I'd sort of do similar, but the plainishing with the little hammer was not for texture, but to hammer out the odd lumps from the bigger hammer/ball and then sometimes we'd want to actually polish out that texture which seems funny considering that here its added for the aesthetic only.

Barter sent me, good morning. I'll share you with my viewers.

I have one small critique which has nothing to do with the quality of your work. Your work is very good. I noticed when you forge at the anvil you drive through the anvil which will destroy your joints over time. The anvil absolutely won't give so for longevity stop your swing before the hammer reaches the anvil, hold the hammer lightly, and snap it at the end increasing the speed/force. This is the Uri Hoffi hammer technique and will keep you forging for another 50 years. If you focus on the speed of your swing vs the force of your swing you'll move metal faster and you'll keep your elbows happy.

All right, how many times did he hit his finger? Great video thank you

What grade of stainless do you use, great video its like tv grade

Very nice . That’s something I have water to do .. so let me ask no trade mark or makers stamp ?

Hi, great video! 8:15 in, the copper is placed into a liquid in a blue plastic tub, is this just water, or is it a treatment / cleaning fluid?

Beautiful pieces! It´s just water where you dip it? Thank you.

Where can I get this copper? Will home depot sell it?

Great video. I am surprised you’re not doing a lot of that with jigs or on the flypress. Certainly the initial sinking could be done on there. What did you put the dirty copper bowls into? And do you pickle the stainless? Great video Steve. All the best

What gage copper

Is there s certain oil that is required to quench copper? 'Spose I could just Google it myself ;)

What was the solution you put the copper in? Also what did you use to quench it? I'm planning on trying this in the (far far) future.

Corking!

16 min vinger bath?

.

You know you've spelt Blacksmithing wrong though right? C'mon Steve, pick up the pace man :)

Nobody's buying the old stuff already made. Nobody is going to respect me after I've made this. Nobody's going to pay me a cent for this. Another time wasting video that will only loose money 💰 from me. This doesn't lead to a million dollars in my pocket.

Hey guys the voice over conversation is very distracting, kind of annoying.
