Default Just forged

I've got a old friend coming this weekend that I haven't seen in over a year so I thought I'd make something for him and his wife and did these wall hooks based on some others that I have from Old Cedar Forge.

As usual they didn't come out as well as I'd like (perfect that is!) but they are fairly similar looking and that will just have to do.

Not at all bad. I do a very similar type of wall hook.

So, what's wrong with those, Larry. Look pretty nice to me. Your friend should be pleased to hang those up!
