Your videos are an example to all RUclipsrs. No unecessary 'music', no boring chat but excellent photography showing just what you are doing. You are also an exceptional blacksmith.
Incredible absolutely incredible, both the blacksmithing itself as well as the cinematography was exceptional. Such a joy to watch so thank you sincerely for taking the time to share this ~Peace~
Bless your workmanship. I am no blacksmith but I always enjoy watching a master craftsman in any trade at work. Brilliant video, informative, entertaining,and the finished product is stunning,
Your inner sense of music shows through your hand movement, just as it does through the choreography of your video editing, and your design process (and explanation).
It is truly an honor to watch u make cool and useful stuff, and I especially like that u show what they are for after u build it ,thanks from the United States
All of your videos leave me speechless. Your proficiency as a blacksmith is beyond exceptional, and dare say your skills with cinematography and editing are equally impressive. No doubt the 17 minutes I just spent watching your video will be the most beneficial use of my time today! I'd love to see plans for that guillotine also. Thank you for posting your video.
GPaulSalvetti Ha ha, thank you very much! The guillotine is basically a ripoff of the "smithing magician" found here - www.blacksmithsupply.com/catalog.aspx?StoreName=blacksmith_supply&DeptID=269444 - I have no other plans.
Torbjörn Åhman+GPaulSalvetti I so agree with GPaul to watch your skill and finesse is a great pleasure and learning experience plus your videography improves all the time! Sometimes I can feel the metal moving to your coaxing...awe inspiring! Thanks for the link to the "magician"...really a versatile tool. Also wanted to ask if you ever sketch your pieces before you start or do you just go from your head to hands with it? Thanks Very Much! ~PJ
pjsalchemy Thank you! Great! I often do sketches, it helps when you think through the working steps. I did a sketch for this one, shown briefly with the stating title. Had no other place for it...
i know Im asking the wrong place but does anyone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost my password. I love any assistance you can give me.
This is a work of art. Exceptional high skill set and an incredible talent being shown here in the making of these tongs. Thank you very much for sharing. I'm setting up my forge and have this to look forward too. Quite inspirational in fact, another reason why I've taken up smith work. It's so important to keep traditions alive. Thank you again from Ireland.
That was the most beautiful and masterfully crafted piece of metal i have seen on you tube. I know it was just a pair of tongs, but every hammer blow had a reason and was carefully planned out. Each heat was for a specific temperature and no higher. Well done.
This is outstanding work, it really makes me appreciate the man who invented the steel laser cutting machine, if you ever meet him please give him a double bells on the rocks.
J'ai toujours été fasciné par le travail à la forge. Le son du marteau sur l'enclume qui me rappelle des souvenirs de ma petite enfance, et le métal qui prend forme petit à petit sous les coups de marteau. Beau travail. Merci
kolejny raz jestem zachwycony efektem Twojej pracy. W czasach tandety i głupiego szokowania , tacy rzemieślnicy jak Ty są obecnie jedynymi prawdziwymi artystami. ten prosty przedmiot jest zachęcająco piękny Dziękuję że mogłem zobaczyć jak powstaje.
Espero traduscas lo que digo, siempre me voy a dormir viendo uno de tus trabajos, los cuales son excelentes y verte trabajando con tanta tranquilidad me relaja y me motiva a intentar hacer cosas, es muy inspirador ver tus herramientas fabricadas con tus propias manos!! Saludos cordiales desde Mendoza Argentina!!
And great it is, Sir 😊. I am grateful for your Like and looking forward to see more of your extraordinary craftmanship. I really appreciate that there are still people nowadays, who take their time to create a valuable tool or piece of art. Continue your work!
Torb, Lovin your style, loving your forge, lovin tools, loving work and also loving your dress sense in the forge!! As always another brilliant video. Thank you for taking the time film this!!
What a great video ! I was so impatient to have a new one of your job ! And again it was a great work and a good inspiration ! I hope you had fun making those tongs and i'm hoping to see more of your work !
I've just watch the video, and I don´t know what to say. Amazing work, as allways. Once upon the time, I try to make a pair of tongs based on a video of yours. What a shame! I need to practice much more before I can do such a perfect work! Mr. Ahman, congratulations!
Great demo video! Those are perhaps the nicest ember tongs I have seen to date. I find your videos to be very informative and have used your methods on many of my own projects. Very well done my friend!
+Matthew Marting On this piece there were allot of filing done... and if you are careful drawing down on the power hammer you can get really smooth results.
Beautiful video, I enjoyed it :) You are skilled craftsman, you remind me Peter Ross and his series "Blacksmithing for woodworkers". Thanks for sharing your creations with us, thanks for your time and effort to make these videos. Best regards from Slovakia!
Уважаемые господа,граждане,товарищи,как угодно,кузнецы!суть не в том,что получилось.Вы посмотрите на работу мастера,как он работает с металлом.На наковальней при рубке-подкладка,обжимку закрепляет снизу клином,работает то ручником,то на молоте,то греет на горне,то применяет горелку...а как открывает козырёк над трубой дымохода,вы заметили?Я посмотрел не одну сотню по ковке,а такое вижу впервые.Десять классов за мастерство!
Excelente y minucioso trabajo, lástima que ya se esté perdiendo un trabajo tan importante como el de la herrería y qué ya no haya herreros tan buenos y perfeccionistas como usted Amigo,saludos desde México.👍

Your videos are an example to all RUclipsrs. No unecessary 'music', no boring chat but excellent photography showing just what you are doing. You are also an exceptional blacksmith.
Thanks Gerry!
Precise, complicated, lovely work. Most people do not understand how difficult it is to do that.
Thanks
One of the best blacksmithing videos I have seen on RUclips ever!
Andrew Pershall Really? Thank you!
Torbjörn Åhman Yeah, I had no idea how the tongs were going to work until about 11 minutes into the video. Great work!
An absolute work of art!!!! Love watching this MASTER at work !!!! This guy is very GOOD!!!!! Beautiful
Thanks!
Incredible absolutely incredible, both the blacksmithing itself as well as the cinematography was exceptional. Such a joy to watch so thank you sincerely for taking the time to share this ~Peace~

Nice seeing some finishing and detail work with crisping up the edges and filing down the rivet heads. I could watch this all evening, and just might.
Thanks!

+heardashot Thank you!! Good luck with the forge!
Very nice project!! I'm also happy to see that you haven't forsaken your hammer and anvil in favor of your power hammer!!
That was the most beautiful and masterfully crafted piece of metal i have seen on you tube. I know it was just a pair of tongs, but every hammer blow had a reason and was carefully planned out. Each heat was for a specific temperature and no higher. Well done.

Not sure how this thing works....but I hope you get the message that we DO appreciate your craftsmanship my good man! You have the skill!

Beau travail. Merci
Beautiful pair of fire place tongs, and another video of pure joy just to watch.

Such A Clean forged look , Love your Videos Torbjörn I enjoy watching them

Always a pleasure watching you create such great things. I am learning. I need some heat I do not have for now to beat some steel.
Very interesting set of fire place tongs. Never seen any like that. Thank you for sharing
Thanks!
How the hell is your final work so clean? Surley hammer control only goes so far... Not a single ding or dent on the piece that I could see. Amazing
+Matthew Marting On this piece there were allot of filing done... and if you are careful drawing down on the power hammer you can get really smooth results.
Very nice Torbjorn! I don't recall you using a guillotine before. Exquisite! Thank You!
Su Amigo Siempre
انت انسان مبدع وشكرا لك You are a creative person and thank you
Шикарный ухват. Приятно смотреть на работу мастера.

You are seriously crafty
Another great project! Your film work really brings out the art work of your metal shaping. Keep it up!
Chris Stoughton Thanks!

SKW Bushcraft Thank you, glad you liked it! Yea, this might fit well with the colonial stuff that Peter does...He is a great smith BTW.
Wow! Beautiful work...well...one more! Congrats!!!
This was super fun to watch. Thanks for the upload, Torbjorn!
Declan Murphy Thanks!
there's something therapeutic about watching someone beat the crap out of a piece of hot steel
stres relief, i think
I agree 100%.
Beautiful work! functional and a piece of art!
