June 28, 201214 yr Hey Daniel, Very cool openers! I really like the buisness end being two "seperate" pieces, makes them rather unique. If I may be so bold, I would suggest that you try forge welding the folded end together and drawing it out in a scroll of some sort, maybe a fish tail. Even if you havn't forge welded yet or your forge can't get hot enough, one can still draw out the folded over part a bit to give that back end a bit more grace and a place to hang it from. Either way, very original work! Caleb Ramsby

I might try it but I dont think It would be worth the extra time and fuel to do on all of them, I run the forge at just 6psi with one burner when making these, fast and efficient.
