[@mastertoddey7269]

Swamp Valley he have a video of him making a press, you should see it, maby you can make one by yourself

[@SwampValley]

Master Toddey maybe one day, but first I want to make a gas forge, coal is too expensive for making knives I think.

[@mastertoddey7269]

Swamp Valley sound like a great idea, im almost done with my forge! I can't wait! Good luck with yours👍

[@lucalaferla6601]

hi Joe, I am looking at making a log splitter forging press, there are no 20 ton ones for a cheapish price, do you think 15 tons is too light?

[@mastertoddey7269]

It's not to light, but if you could get a bigger one you should do that

[@gentilknives8907]

15 tons is fine unless you are dealing with very big pieces of steel

Looks like you are insperated by Liam Hoffman

i was just thinking the same thing

[@mrsimpson2022]

thats not brut de forge man (its stock removal) but its a nice knife

[@esnyd]

Great looking knife but that's not "brute de forge". That would be forging the knife and bevels to almost complete and only putting an edge on it. Either way, it turned out fantastic.

[@gentilknives8907]

Eric Snyder brute de forge translated to English means raw and rough and Not that you need to forge the knife 100% to shape

[@esnyd]

That may be the literal translation, but in the US, if you say "brute de forge", it implies the knife was forged to shape and left relatively untouched with a grinder. Forging a mono steel flat billet on a press and cutting a knife out of the blank is not "brute de forge" IMO Still a beautiful piece, just sharing my opinion on the method.

[@neilyakuza6595]

That's stock removal. Still a nice knife.

[@dylanthetyrantking1001]

what

[@anddysworkshop466]

Hey man, how can i find you? Instagram?

[@nachoquesadaaparicio1603]

Forged????

[@chrissnyder8415]

[@NKG416]

definitely forged

[@chrissnyder8415]

Only an ignorant smith would take offense.

[@pabloramirezdiaz7668]

Beautiful knife, congrats!
Forged Knife? Not really.
Stock removal? Yes

beware of lung cancer

[@redblade43]

No need for all that hammering of the metal anymore in order to shape it, just pour the molten metal into a mould and you will get a perfect shape and flat surface.

[@masonrichards9020]

That doesnt work. Besides, a hand forged knife has more character
