Forging my first sword, a Pirate cutlass!! from a truck leaf spring, this is Part 3 of this series, in this episode, we take the guard and mill it off flat and put a slot in for the tang, we also clean up our tang area and file it to final dimensions. and a side project of making a cushion top for my shop stool.
The tools I use in this video are many but the ones mentioned are the power hammer by Zeiglar and the Belt Grinder by TS Project
