Blacksmithing - Forging a shoehorn 

I love your videos, I have watched you now for more than a year and I just love the simplicity, no loud annoying commentary, just making things and you show every step you take when forging and crafting. Not sure if your familiar with Primitive Technology you tube channel but you are the modern equivalent. Thank you for your time and effort you put into these videos.

Does anyone else find this calming and relaxing? Wish I could watch you create your work in person. So proud to be a subscriber.

Is there anything you cannot make in iron? You are more than a blacksmith, Thorbjörn, you are an artist!

The single solitary "aww" after the grinder died is so easy to relate with.

Accuracy , Patience . Ideas above all experience .

Now is the time to forge shoes ♥

I am constantly amazed at your ability to not only create such incredible works, but to make the tools and dies required as well, and you make it look easy. I really want to hate you for being so talented, but i can't. I just hope it is the result of many years of hard work and you are not one of those people who can just do anything, then i would have to hate you,LOL

Great work as always, Torbjörn! And a pleasure to see you work.😊

You truly are an artist! Your items are always items I'd be proud to own! Thank you for your time and effort with the video. Thank you bro Anthony Kent

Torbjorn, I love watching you craft your projects. And the fact that you make it look so easy just tells me that you are a true professional and artist. Well done sir!!! Well done!

Beautiful shoe horn and a wonderful reminder to us all take the time to stop and smell the roses

I am AMAZED at how well this was filmed and edited. But I am FAR MORE amazed at what I've learned. I'd like to say hello from Melbourne Australia. Thank you 😊

I find it funny that I made a shoehorn for my dad for Father's day last weekend, using nothing but a paint-can propane forge, an anvil and a hammer.... And of course one of my favorite and inspirational blacksmiths comes out with a video showing me how a professional would do it.... Did I mention I made mine out of an old piece of rebar that a friend found in a yard? Detroit doesn't have much money....

I know I’ll never own one of your works as they are one of a kind, simply amazing, smiths are the tradesmen that took us from the copper age to now, plastic & whatever. Keep on Trucking!

Du är bäst Torbjörn. Du har fått mej inspirerad till metalslöjd.

Beautiful shoe horn! Another angle grinder bites the dust ;-) I love your yellow roses, they are my favorites!

Any time you are having a stressful day, just come watch Torbjorn's blacksmithing videos and you'll find peace :)

You are an artist, a blacksmith genius!

Wow Torbjorn you did a Awesome Job on that ShoeHorn. You are a Amazing Blacksmith.

Nice work in a small well equipped home shop. I grew up in an old steel fabricating shop of my grandfather's, we had master forgers working in the shop, no electrical equipment, the planishing hammer was another man, sometimes two of them. I never went really into it, rather worked my teen years on the old big lathe we had. There was a guy who controlled his smoking by lighting his cigarette by cold-forging a 12 mm round into a square long "needle" until the very end of it became red hot. It is extremely difficult to forge a round into a perfect square keeping it from turning into a romboid, especially by cold-forging. I thought you might interested to hear that. You are doing very good well thought out and we'll planned jobs. Congratulation. Old Bob

Your greenhouse looks lovely, nice the ice and snow are finally gone.

I like your way of doing it, it's great.

lovely being a king of your passion , so envious especially if you have tools in this COVID period

I absolutely love how crisp and clean all your forged pieces are! it is extremely satisfying to watch! thank you for sharing your work with us

Wow, I am always impressed watching your videos. Incredible quality in every aspect. Never stop doing this please

Totally impressed. So many techniques. A work of art.

There is an old joke... I love the work. I am able to watch it looong hours. :) But that is literally it about your videos, Torbjörn, they are simple, extremely educating, and addictive to watch. Thanks.

Nice job on the shoe horn. Simple objects can still be made with an artistic eye, Thanks

"Oh Oh" then "Awww" when the grinder died... LOL! Amazing craftsmanship! well done! : )

as always, perfect! the simplicity of design makes it.

Cher Ami, j’apprécie grandement tes vidéos, il y’a une grande sérénité qui entoure ta façon de faire...bravo encore!

lovely work as always, torbjörn! love watching your videos, they're so nice and relaxing. somehow, the sound of metal on metal helps me sleep. keep up the great work!

VERY clean forging! Great idea for next Father's Day. RIP, Grinder....you have served well.

neat method. Garden is looking excellent also.

A simple tool, fashioned into a piece of Artwork.

The way of working is amazing!! Thanks for sharing ;-)

Nice! I hadn't noticed the slight back angle of the horn before, but looking at my own heel, it makes a lot of sense.

7:49 anyone else notice near the bottom-left corner, that bug just dragging a piece of something away? XD guess somebody's learning on the job there!!

I love the garden shots.

Amazing craftsmanship as always! Thank You for sharing

Beautiful work. I think the regularity of the block barrelling tool marks really underlines your skill. Thanks for posting.

You let the magic smoke escape from your angle grinder. Great job on the shoe horn. 👍

A fantastic result as always, I really like your style. You are very talented, keep up the good work.

Very nice! Would make a great fathers day gift

Unbelievable. Beautiful design. You sir are an artist

What I particularly like about your videos, is that you don't waffle a lot of self important crap; you just get on with it, and do, to my eyes, a damned brilliant job! You are a true craftsman. Thank you again for making these videos. If I had more money, I would support you on Patreon. One day.

When ever I feel sad or lonely I binge watch ur videos and cuddle my dog 🐶 she’s a cavoodle and her name is Moët (pronounced mo-ee)

I live in Oklahoma and it's 3:30 in the morning here and the one time im up this late you come out with a video. Yay me

Oh no you let out the MAGIC smoke. Love the video.

I wanna know who would give this a thumbs down???? That’s a beautiful piece of metalwork :)))))

I hope it is a very very long time before you ever need a long handled shoe horn. Thank you Sir, and keep the videos coming.

It takes a lot of talent to make something as simple as a shoehorn look that good. Very nicely done, sir.

Lovely job as always mate.

i love the shape :) and the shiny finish, amazing piece of art !!!

Great project as always. You will come need that as time rolls on.

You have the most amazing greenhouse. I've been interested in vertical gardening for a while, but I live in an apartment.

Great work! Thank you for the video

Blacksmith is wonderful job . Super video .

Absolutely love the beadmaker rig!

Always a pleasure to watch you work.

What a great video, as all of your posts are. I am in awe of the precision with which you work.

Just plain old good work Brother. Thanks. Bob from Philly

Man watching you work is amazing. You do different stuff that’s really fascinating it’s wonderful sir !!👍🏾

Great video as always, i already watch out for the next. Thank you for shearing it with the otters. Great job!

This guy does beautiful work!! I Love watching his videos. Always learn something!👍

very nice, as usual. beautiful roses, just hate it when all the smoke escapes from a grinder

Incredible craftsmanship

Beautiful as always, TA.

Makes me miss my roses, I used to have 12 rose plants back at my old house. They don't grow too well where I moved.

That’s a great idea having such a long handle on it, the only shoehorns I’ve seen in the past have been quite short, that long handle would be a great advantage. Now that I’m getting on a bit in years I sometimes could use a shoehorn like that to get my work boots on, might be my next project. Top job, yours looks great, Regards from down under.

Your work is amazing!!!

Thumbs up from this guy.

this one was better than usually... :)

A fine functional and elegant shoe horn, Torbjorn. Always learn something new in technique or tool forming or just the relaxation and perspective from your videos, plus the quality of videos gets better all the time. Thank You!

I think I have watched all of your videos. Awesome skill and excellent camera work . My 7 year old daughter loves to watch your videos with me at the end of the night. Thanks again and keep up the great work.

That’s gr8. Now we know who can help us when we get our snow boots on and off! Lol 😂 love ur work sir...

Thank you for the tutorial I has clarified some things for me. Great camera work.

That will last generations

i really enjoyed that, great blacksmithing

WHAT A GREAT VIDEO!!!! JUST PERFECT!!!!

Awesome work and video!!

hands down, the best Blacksmith-Gardener on RU-vid. it's all looking fantastic, sir.

I made one outta PVC once but never thought about using metal. Of course yours looks way better. Heirloom quality 👍

Wow! Great work! Your videos always inspire me to do better work, take more care, and strive for excellence. Thank you! It also makes me want to make more tools!

Beautiful work as always Torbjorn! The shoehorn that I made was...shall we say, much more utilitarian. Your's is a work of art! Thank you for sharing and inspiring!

Nice work!!!!! Greetings from Athens,Greece!

Beautiful!!!, I wish I had it!. I have been using the same store bought metal shoe horn for 20 years. I would never spend money on a plastic one again

I love this channel for so many reasons... And instead of preparing to an exam I'm watching Torbjörn...

This is so soothing to watch.

Nydelig, flott arbeid og masse gode ideer. takk

Uploaded just in time to watch before work!

I love your scandinavian accent. Great video.

That is something you would have never thought a Blacksmith would have made and I'm sure it's the only one on RU-vid!! LOL

Very nice!

I never thought of making one of those good idea. Because when you get over 55 years old you need one. Lol,,,, 👏👍👊🤣

Beautiful work!

Perhaps the best ever Torbjörn! Yesterday was Fathers Day and my 61st birthday. I was given THREE pairs of shoes! Since I always make what you make, the timing is spooky perfect! Great work bro!!

I feel comfortable with these videos, is like the "asmr" of the forje(?) jajaja Great work!!

Thank you for your time and effort
