I Forge Iron

Recommended Posts

Posted

I've recently been intrigued with a hand-forged mezzaluna I came across on-line. I was at an antique market yesterday and found an old draw knife that made me think of the mezzaluna.

I removed the wooden handles and started up the forge! :D


I wish I had taken a "before" pic, but this one from google is pretty close...

Here's the final product, but I still have to heat treat it...

I'd like to try this again but use some antler or wood for handles. Not bad for a few bucks!

Thanks! Yes, I did try it and it works very well. Takes a bit getting used to but after the first piece of celery... no problems! :)
