This is my first attempt at forging. The knife was first and the hook was second. I should have done the hook first and then done a thousand more, then tried the knife first. The videos made it look so easy.... I hope to spend many years perfecting the art.

Thanks for the encouragement C-1 Tool Steel. I would love to. How do I go about doing that?

I have looked at this site for a while now. I have really enjoyed the topics and the great information. This is a picture of my very first hook. I made it last night. I think I am in love.
