In this video I address something rarely talked about in blacksmithing which is especially important for beginners but also very important even for seasoned veterans of the craft, and that is basic hammer technique.
Today I cover how I hold a hammer, the basic hammer stroke, how to get a great deal of power with very little effort, and most importantly, how bad technique can and will INJURE YOU! Learn what causes most shoulder injuries and ends blacksmithing careers and how not to do it.
Also, we'll talk about selecting the right size hammer. So follow along and hopefully I won't bore you to death.
