hey all i'm new to the art of blade smithing of any shape or discribtion. my plan is to bring back a bit of tradition, ya see i'm Irish and and back in the day Ireland had some of the best blacksmiths an swordsmiths in the world well so i heard ha.
so after months of searching a found an anvil 60kg/132lb for sale in a car boot sale. 250euro approx $260 so happy days anvils this size are like gold dust here.
and received high heat resistant blocks from a brick factory that is closing down for free.
i was just wondering would any one here be able to throw some advice or tips my way like what tool would be good to start with and likes, all or any help will make me very greatful.
thanks in advance.
