Been lurking fit a while, finally signed up. Only been swinging a hammer for a couple of months, but have always worked with my hands. Lot of good info here, looking forward to being part of the forum. Started out poor boying it, home built forge, lump charcoal. Farrier friend hooked me up with a gas forge, but still pretty low budget. Attached is two I'm working on currently. Not sure why pic is there three times?
Also, this is hammer work, not just grinding a file. I use a grinder like everyone else, but grinding a blade out of a blank, file, etc, is not forging.
Just saying hi
