How did you get a 3/8” leaf spring to fatten up to that?

[@jeffreyrein1619]

I know. Just wanted to see what they would say...

Rewatch the video --- all shown up.
It is a common smithing technic for advanced novice. ))

It's called --- video editing.
The cuts are made very smoothly, but they are still visible to the experienced eye. Also, the unoriginal sound-over is confusing. ))
Also whole video accelerated. At least x2.
But you may be right --- on 1:20 looks like they take another piece of steel. ))
But the moves are legit --- just take a bigger piece of spring. ))))

@@iridios6127 Iv been pounding steel for many years.. and most of what I use is leaf spring mainly because I can get packs for next to nothing. I am in no way shape or form saying what they are doing wrong they are talented smiths and They produce a beautiful tool. But 5160 does not move like that in my experience. That is why I asked the question.

[@demetriosaban6484]

good forger,, but forge axe is for single handed,, while picture is good for two hands,, the leaf spring is two thin for double handed axe

[@iridios6127]

Nope. You can fold the spring and weld it to get enough material to any type of axe . )))
