Lyrics:
I thought to make a horseshoe and asked my hammer thus
He said, "I'll ask the anvil what you require of us"
The hammer asked the anvil and she at once agreed
That they should meet together in the way that I decreed
And it's sparks a-flying, passion strong
I am the blacksmith singing
The hammer and the anvil song
I thought to make an anchor, for taking on the main
The hammer and the anvil relented once again
So they sat there together, as I prepared the cast
They braced themselves for impact like a sailor on the mast
And it's sparks a-flying, passion strong
I am the blacksmith singing
The hammer and the anvil song
I thought to make a broadsword, for fighting on the field
Much as I know the hammer is a nobler thing to wield
For though us humble tradesfolk choose a quiet life
The gods of war come to the door of the hammer and his wife
And it's sparks a-flying, passion strong
I am the blacksmith singing
The hammer and the anvil song
They asked me for a statue of the general who died
A sword raised in his iron fist and a warhorse sat astride
And though I knew they'd try me for what I did decide
I stuck a hammer in his fist and an anvil by his side
And it's sparks a-flying, passion strong
I am the blacksmith singing
The hammer and the anvil song
Now all you merry blacksmiths, a warning take by me
Stick to your country horseshoes and your anchors for the sea
When the gods of war come calling, promising you gold
They'll take your hammer, take your anvil, take your very soul
And it's sparks a-flying, passion strong
I am the blacksmith singing
The hammer and the anvil song
And it's sparks a-flying, passion strong
I am the blacksmith singing
The hammer and the anvil song

To those who dont know the amazing context for this song. blacksmithing requires a true rhythm to, you have to in order to make the blade evenly balanced. the two on the side strike the anvil to make it bounce up so the blacksmith doesnt have to lift it so hard. This song uses that timing and some of the rhythm to these motions

@fujin657 9 ай бұрын

I have never heard of or seen such a hammer and i don't know if it was just how i was taught but i'm pretty sure bouncing your hammer after every strike would actually interrupt your rhythm and make you a lot slower, ik some blacksmiths do it when turning your piece but that is more to keep you strikes in time once you're in a rhythm so you can keep your flow if you're not used to turning your piece as fast but none of my blacksmith friends or i have ever done that. no hate intended just don't want misinformation going about. please inform me with links to stuff if i got any of this wrong

Blacksmith here. I usually use a 3-1 rythm - so three strikes to my piece followed by one on the anvil. I do that for two reasons: For one it bounces back and helps me lifts the hammer, as you have said in the replies. Secondly I use the non-working time to assess where I have to hit next, which at least for me is the more important aspect. What I have not heard is a hammer with a seperate striking side for hitting the anvil, and I also would know the purpose. As the sides of the hammer often aren't - or at least not quite as- hardened as the front and the back it wouldn't bounce as well.

The hammer is truly the most noble of tools. I know swords are more frequently associated with nobility and heroism, but what use is a sword without a war to fight or an enemy to slay? In times of war, the hammer can shatter wood, stone, and steel as easily as bone. In times of peace it can be used to clear away the debris from the battlefield and build new homes and tools.

I like how the rhythm is at a certain tempo where it keeps the tempo. So like when you hit a anvil, the hammer, kind of bounces back up and a lot of blacksmiths kind of use that to minimize the energy spent as constantly hammering on up anvil with those repetitive motions can get tiring pretty quickly, but if they take advantage of the momentum that is already there. They can conserve energy and work for longer. Plus its very hot and sweaty in a forge
