- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2018
- Swages are concave tools used to form the outside of the work. The most common swage is half round, although they can also be found in other shapes such as a V swage. Swages are a class of blacksmithing tools referred to as top tools.

But I gotta say your channel, you content and of course your good self are by far he most enjoyable, informative, easy to understand and well just plain invaluable. Thankyou so much don’t know what us new guys would do without your well thought out content and experience
"SWAGES!" lol. Nice transition, and another great video, thanks!
Love your videos. Very informative. Thank you and keep them coming.
Well mate, just have to say I am a learner and find find your videos very informative and interesting, your a natural teacher and I appreciate you passing on your knowledge. Your a true gentleman
I've enjoyed your 'Tool if the Day'. Told my dad about it tonight while we were in the shop. Hope it keeps going.
Guess we'll be seeing you on Saturday as well.....
Are you in Utah?
going to run out of tools to talk about some day lol but from the look of it wont be any time soon
@@BlackBearForge yes.
The top swage handles prove you do not use them very much, they have no patina, they look new.
good video. I found a swage hammer head on our farm. I was trying to find out what it was. It's stamped Y P with an anchor between the letters. I have not found a bottom part yet.
With the excess vibration from using a striker, is that the reason some smiths essentially "wrap" a metal handle around their top tools?
I think that is part of it, plus the metal handles are seen as a permanent solution.
Gee you've got a good assortment of tools and swages, i'm jealous. hahah joking.
Is there a special reason for the painted (red/white) swage? Always informative. "Tool of the Day" is like taking a daily iron tablet with you vitamins (pun intended). It's good for you.
No reason other than thats the way the looked when i bought them
i was looking at files because i cant aford a belt grinder right now and was farily shocked to find out they cost more than a cheep harbor freight grinder i can get its not going to last long but half the price of one first cut bastard file
