Who else instantly hits the like button in the first second of watching Torbjörns video?

You have the nicest video format on KZfaq. While you do talk from time to time you do not feel compelled to train the camera on your face and run your jaws like so many others. A picture is worth a thousand words, yet some feel the need to spray a thousand words at us. You seem like a really humble guy. God bless.

Love it when you post new videos. 13 degrees here in Boise this morning. I wish I had your fire.

I found your channel a few days ago when your wafer iron video was in my recommended list. I have been binging your videos almost non-stop since! Definitely recommending you to some friends for them to check out. 💗🇦🇺 Australia

Making a tool, always a sign of an interesting project ahead!

Again Torbjorn shows the ease and flow of working steel. JC🌵

I’m glad Torbjörn could set a-side the time.

Once again, I love your work and your simple humor.

I could see your videos thousend times a day

I'm also a blacksmith. I enjoy watching the different techniques. There's no right or wrong, but safety is not negotiable. This channel does use all the safety steps that are required but I've seen some on KZfaq that leave a lot to be desired. For all of you new blacksmiths, alway wear ear and eye protection. I know you may wonder why eye protection, but every once in a while you will feel chips of metal fly to your face. Sometimes they sell you the wrong metal. An experience blacksmith will know right away, but students might not know and be injured by this. Also, proper ventilation is always essential. Don't get cheap unless you want to damage your lungs. Last but not least, the hearing protection should be rated at a minimum of 30 decibels. The higher the better. You can never go too high. Enjoy blacksmithing in a safe way.

The effectiveness of this tool was pretty surprising to me. It looks so simple and barely has any wedge or angle, but it moved a lot of material really quickly and very "cleanly." Very impressive!

Torbjörn never disappoints! Always fascinating stuff, always cleverly produced! 👍

Thank you! It doesn't matter what you're making, it's always well made and a pleasure to watch.

i may have fallen out of love with blacksmithing ages ago but I will still always return to you mate, peak content you are!!

For some reason, the angles and shape of the test piece at the end made me think of a tiki idol. Perhaps you will forge a tiki idol for us?

Had me on the edge of my set from start to finish. Every smith needs one of those tools.

Hmmm... now what is it that you're planning with that test piece? Great video as always Torbjörn, thank you!

Thanks as always for the education. I especially like to hear the hammers. There is never a need for canned music. Well done.

Always amazing to me is how big of a tool you can make from such a small piece of round bar. Let alone your deft hands and amazing control of your power hammers! Thanks for the inspiration and anticipation of what you are going to build next! Hat Tip, ~PJ

So now I know how the original old lock gate ratchet racks were made, thanks very much 🍻

Thank you for taking time to film, edit and post this video.

Very precise. Impressive!

Swedish wizard, your videos are amazing!

You are without a doubt one of my favorite people on the whole planet!

Good to see again a blacksmithing work from you. Been long time sounds like years. I hope this will continue and we can watch your precise metal processing works. Have nice days

Torbjörn makes a tool video, that can only mean there is an exciting project coming up that will use said tool :)

Thank you for showing your technique !-)

Our #1 blacksmith hero on KZfaq! As always a pleasure to watch you bend the metal to your iron will❤️‍🔥

Keep the project vids coming... I wish we could see them more often, than every month or so..

Great work👏

*Loving your work as always.*

Even the toughest steel is like putty in your hands. Looking forward to your next project!

You're the best..and second best!

P-neumatic power hammer are awesome.

Having watch many of your videos I imagine this video is a lead up to something more intricate. I'm looking forward to it!

brilliant yet again

I find it so relaxing to watch your videos.

thanks sharing the video.

A new video; outstanding!

Watching your projects gives me indescribable pleasure. stay cool

another fantastic video thank you as always

Looks perfect for forging some Jack stands. Another excellent video.

If only I had the means to create my own tools, I'd do so. When I need one, I have to buy it and I cringe at the cost. You on the other hand, can just go out to the workshop and forge one. Forging seems to be a very handy and lucrative skill, one of which that many can be very envious of.

Great video. You did amazing work on this projects!

My thanks to you Sir

thank you great video and blacksmithing.

Whenever I watch your videos, I feel amazed by your outstanding work, no doubt it may be once in a time, but still there is something that fascinates in the video with something extreme...cool keepup👍👍👍

As always nicely done sir.

Great video, looks to be a very handy tool. Keep up the great work.

That groan at 8:50 forging a little too far is priceless

Such a nice touch with oil bottle. Made me lough😁

Your precision always amazes me !

Good job 👍👍👍Thank you for sharing. Take care of yourself, be safe, and healthy 🇨🇦

It is fascinating the different tools required to make or to forge specific features in a project. Very similar to woodworking where you must make a jig to perform a feature in a piece of wood.

Le bonsoir de France ! I see that your magic skills of invocation are improving over time ! Jokes aside, the saw-toothed shape of the test piece could make a nice ornament. Well, well. I follow your work for a long time and I always be pleased when you share a new video. You are truely magnify blacksmithing processes and only you know how to do it as well as you do. I wish you all the best for this new year. Vive la forge, vive la Suède, vive Torbjörn !

Well done, dear brother. God bless you so much.

Hello and thanks for sharing such expert skills and video content.

Wonderful video. I always enjoy you giving us the occasional laugh. But your craftsmanship is just always superior.

Forgot to wish you and family all the best for the coming year.

Looks like time for some artisan forged jack stands!

Ha nice new video. Great work on a new tool. Hope to see you put it to good use. 😍

thank you...

when that jug dropped at a snap ! hahaha

Linseed oil, falling from the sky, on command. Nice touch.

Very nice! I'm looking at forging side set tools now that I'll be getting a tire hammer in a few months.

Very tidy and well done. Good man torbjorn! Cheers J

parabens novamente

This is clearly a tool foreshadowing the next build: a wrought iron sunbathing chair with adjustable back positions

Nice.

Its very cool

De var ett tag sedan kul att se dig igen !!

Finally a new, GREAT, video ! Tks master, good job as usual. Greetings from Rome ITALY 👍👍👍👍👍

Very nice Job. Hopefully you get great use out of it for many years to come. Can't wait to see more videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge On. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God Bless.

That was so cool. I gotta make one of those. I would never use it, but it is so simply elegant i need one.

we see the return of K O K T L I N O L J A

Sensacional guerreiro! 👍👏👏

Cool 👍

A joy to watch, al always. 👍👍

Another terrific tool. I'm still practicing my technique for getting the linseed oil to be available 🤣

Gosto de assistir os trabalhos desse cara. São muito inspiradores e nos dão uma vibe legal...Logo quando sou notificado, já venho descendo o like👍

Спасибо мастер.

Hello from Finland 👋 always wait your new videos 👍

hello torbjorn happy new year for you and your family lots of new projects and beautiful videos from you for this new year

Great looking tool that you've made!!! It took me awhile to know what it was you were making not being a blacksmith but enjoy watching it Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up

A very useful addition to your already extensive line up of tools, skill fully made as usual 👍. That blue striped coat you always wear, is this a “Swedish work shirt”, or something you’ve designed for yourself? Looks good.👌 Regards from Down Under.

Impressive work as usual. I do wish I find an ABNO hammer someday!

8:00 Great, now you have the perfect tool to forge Easter Island Moai statues 🗿🗿🗿

Very nice work. You will be the first blacksmith on You tube to hit 1 million subscribers.

Great video. Like all your others. Greetings

6 dias de atraso mas estou aqui, assistindo o cara mais foda no martelo que tem no KZfaq. O que eu não daria pra passar uma semana nessa oficina assistindo presencialmente.

Det är alltid ett stort nöje att se dina videor, och jag talar inte ens english :)

craftsman --- usta , thanks for the video without music ---- müziksiz video için teşekkür .

Super! Din skicklighet känner inga gränser!

Thanks. If ever you wonder, should I upload, the answer is yes.

My lovely wife: “He is in his shop making a tool. So he can then make a tool”. It’s all about the tooling. You have done another great job of it Brother Torbjörn!

I litteraly watched your video last night- a carving knife for the third time in a year

I still don't know what a set tool is for... sorry. Though one thing I can tell you is, seeing your anvil, I've always loved the idea of them. Ever since I was a little kid, I've loved anvils - such a big, heavy, solid, sturdy chunk of steel. I worked in a steel fabricating company for a while when I was 17 (1967). It was with a bunch of old, crusty, hardcore, smoking, steel workers... the best summer job. .

When you started forging the piece of mild steel at the end, there was a point where it started to look like a Moai statue (from Rapa Nui/easter island). Maybe that's an idea for a future forged figure? I'd love to watch how you'd make one!

A great video Sir ! This tool could be used for making the wedges used in axe and hammer heads .
