I Forge Iron

167lb Trenton


Recommended Posts

After spending 8 hours in the forge taking a blacksmithing class I stopped on the way home and picked up this 167lb Trenton.  It was a great ending to a great day!  The serial number puts it at 1926, so not particularly old, but it has excellent ring and rebound.  The edge chips aren't too bad so I think it's going to turn into one heck of a good user!  The folks in the class knew I was going to look at it after we got done and all said to leave it in the truck if I got it, so it's strapped down and ready to roll.  I wish there was time to get a base ready so I could hammer some hot steel on it tomorrow!  Here she is after about five minutes of fine wire wheel to be able to read the markings...
