I believe this is the best, most detailed, informative video I have ever watched on hand forging a blade. Thank u very much
Thanks! That's the goal! More in the series to come!
It only took me once of flipping my knife out of my tongs into the water bucket to learn to cover the damn water bucket when I'm forging knives! (Ok, twice, but no one saw it so the second time doesn't count).
thank you sam i really enjoy your insructional videos i need all the help i can get i hope to see more videos on forging hidden tangs and shoulders thanks Mark 😃👍👍

Great vid! Thanks for sharing.
Really enjoying your instructional videos, you get your point across very easily and make a fine teacher, you really portray what you want to get acrossed easily enough for everyone to understand
Thankyou for the feedback! I'm so glad people are enjoying the instructional videos, I really like making them!
@@SamTownsBladesmith yeah they're great and you're doing them very well. I can see a lot of people getting use out of those videos for a long time to come
you make it look so easy!
awesome hammer skills!
Thank you
thanks for showing nd explaining this properly
No worries, thankyou for watching!
Great blade Sam!
I wonder how sharp is the dressing of your hammer? I find difficulty in forging my plung lines, I think the edges on my hammers are to rounded to be precise...
I love this series... Filming the entire forging process without interruption with the of voice comments is very efficient, plus the content is precise concise... Big incentive to me!!
Please, could you show us "coffin" build (I beleave you call it like that).
& Could you show how you go about changing orientation of the bevel, say like the point of a tanto or the sway in a kukri or double bevel builds...
Thank you!
Keep up the great videos & content.
Take care.
Thabks Dav! Yeah my hammers have very small radius on their faces. I'm glad the content is being received so well!
I'm not sure what a "coffin" would be in as far as forging unfortunately, could you email me a photo? Samtownsbladesmith@gmail.com
Another great video.
Thankyou 😁
Dang sam you make that look easy
Haha practise makes perfect
Awesome tutorial! I’d love to see you forge a small broke back seax.
Cheers mate, I'll put it on the list@
Thankyou i learned alot on this
Glad to hear!
Nice tutorial
Thanks!
Nice job.
Cheers!
Todo un maestro.espectacular
Graçias!
This is amazing, will have to watch it multiple times to get all that goodness.
Wanted to ask, I notice you didn't spend a lot of time flattening, do you focus on this in grinding? I'm struggling with that when I get to the grinder, some of those indentations cause a lot of grinding and too much stock removal.
Beautiful hammers and Anvil!
My forged finishes are quite flat, my final passes are done lightly with overlapping blows to create a relatively flat and even surface
@@SamTownsBladesmith great, thanks, I'll try that.
Awesome video Sam. Thanks for the upload!
Question: How would you go about forging the bevels in without having a drop between the ricasso and cutting edge? I was forging 2x Seaxs a couple days ago and I was trying to keep the ricasso and cutting edge in line/same width. I wrestled with it for a while, forging the bevel, dressing growth in width (which pretty much just upset the stock back to where it came from) and repeating this over and over. Eventually I just gave up and decided I'll grind the bevels in when my new belts arrive! (#cheater)
Next week's video is on a bevelled tang seax, which is already up on my patreon!
@@SamTownsBladesmith Fantastiche! I look forward to it :D Hope you're well
My first knife was made from a Jeep coil spring. Oh and first lol
Haha yeah it tends to be a common starting material
You need to improve your hammering
In what way?
