My 6 year wanted a sword. I'm not there yet, but with the tools I have and a rusty old crowbar; I made a big fancy butter knife. Its sharp as a bowling ball and wild looking enough to make a kid flip his lid. I smacked it with a ball pein, grinded, and torch patina'd it for a "spacey" look.

There is a talented new guy on here who showed a method of making a rams head from a spike. Mines not pretty, but I finally pulled it off. Without using a vice.

Last but not least. (Or maybe it is), a lazy mans tongs. I got the idea while making bacon. They are about 2 and a half feet long and actually work.
