Hello!
In this video I try to show how you can go about forging an axe, as a beginner smith. So no power tools what so ever. Only hand tools.
If you want to know more about hammer eye punches, check out Ethan Harty's website: www.ethanhartyblacksmith.com/b...

Can you make a step by step video on making a wrapped eye axe with mild steel body and forge welded high carbon steel bit?

Thanks for the video Nils, and the bonus anvil review. For any Aussies or Americans that didn't know, C45 is equivalent to 1045.

Absolutely Extraordinary to see this done exclusively with hand tools! It inspired me to get out on the forge and give this a go!

And that's the way the originals blacksmiths made tools for every day use. Nothing wrong with the new technologies if you are in a hurry to sell your products, but the old fashion way has something that the new technologies don't have : quality and uniqueness. Glad that a young fellow is bringing back the original old ways. Greetings from Toronto.
