NolanF Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Hello Everyone, I come back here to share with you a project I am really proud of. I made my first forged tool. Using traditional blacksmith techniques. I initiated this project with my desire to make my own forged tools. And that's what I did. I made my first blacksmith experience crafting this axe. I am so proud of it, I wanted to have your advice on it. I made two little videos of this project, one about the blacksmithing part and the other about the handle woodcrafting part. I leave you these two links, so you can tell me what you think of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2l4fDzdk8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUq0g6k Thank you, have a great day !

Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I think it is a good looking axe and you are right to be proud of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 What alloy(s)? Also my biggest suggestion is to look at the grain on the handle, it looks to me like that is more likely to break where the grain goes across the handle and not end to end.

anvil Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 What Thomas said. I always, to the best of my ability, want the grain of my handles to run vertically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
