It's honestly nice to see somebody actually taking the time to truly forge instead of just taking a piece of bar stock and cutting and grinding it down into the final piece.

Agreed. A lot of "forging" videos aren't actually forging at all.

The style of no commentary, silence and just the sound of hammers and the other tools, really relaxes me in a way like ASMR does, it is elegant and natural. Looking forward to your new videos.

I used your method for the handle to make a herb chopper of my own today (I put a handle at each end) It works so well. Thank you. Its just a hobby for me, I'm not very good but I enjoy doing it. I thought I was going to have to cut a tail at each end to make handles. I'm glad I came across your video. Greetings from Ireland.

Måste säga (om jag inte sagt det tidigare) att det är förbaskat kul att se en svensk hantverkare av kvalité på KZfaq bland alla andra DIY kanaler som jag prenumererar på. Du är seriös och noggrann, samt väldigt duktig på att fånga på film det du gör på ett bra sätt. Produktionen blir bara bättre och bättre, denna: riktigt proffsig enligt mig! Projekten är alltid intressanta, även om man inte smider själv. Det är något hypnotiserande och lugnande i rödglödande metallarbeten. Ser fram emot nästa upplägg och hoppas det kommer många fler :) Kör hårt Åhman!

I really liked this simple design and decided to forge one finally this evening. It isn't as pretty, but I think it'll come out nice enough. I have a love for these kinds of blades as they remind me of the centuries before machining, when you could look at something and see how much time, patience, and skill had been put into it.

When i make these, i use the same techniques with very few exceptions. I typically round my tails instead of keeping them squared. I don't typically grind the tip of the blade squared either. Also, using a brass brush at the very last heat on the spine and tail handle for a "Finnegan's Gold" effect is very nice to look at, in my opinion. Very well done!
