Lufolk - The whole world's village blacksmith: Forging a triskele/triskelion pendant by hand with traditional blacksmithing techniques.
Hi! My name is Philip and one of the people behind Lufolk. I have always been interested in the simple things in life. When I look back on history I get inspired and fascinated by the people who came up with all the smart solutions to make our everyday life easier. What you can accomplish with a few tools and great skills is impressive. The first time I got that feeling: I made this! This will be useful! Was when I made a wooden spoon as a kid. And think that was the start, I have ever since been interested in making things.

Hi, can I ask how much your hammer weighs to draw the metal out initially and then the smaller hammer to make the curls? Or if you could recommend good blacksmith tool brand? 🙏 Thank you so much

@lufolkcrafts Жыл бұрын

My main hammer is around 1 kg. The smaller around 300 grams. I have been forging with Hultafors hammers and to me they work well 🙂

What did you use to fix the triskele to the circle initially? was it brazed in place and the bands are decorative? or was the initial fixture just temporary?

@lufolkcrafts 8 ай бұрын

It was braced.

Ok, ooook, haha. That axe packing video was the first and only one from you i had seen. I'm glad you replied to my bitchy complaint 😂. NOW I understand your channel. Very nice work, my dude. May I ask why you chose Ansuz, Kaunan, Perth and Algiz for the engraving? Just curious. And subscribed.

Haha, yes, watching the packing video without context might not make sense, I agree 😃 thank you very much for your support! The pendant I make in the video is custom work so it's the customer's choice.
