roosko Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Another reason to attend hammer-ins, Guild meetings, and knifemaker get togethers in general. While at the Georgia Knifemakers Guild meeting a couple of weeks ago, a friend Carl (CRex) pulled out a handy gadget, and I couldn't wait to get home to make one. This tool allows you full-tang forgers to forge the finger groove while using the anvil face to keep the spine straight. You will notice in the pic that I have two size bars (large and small finger groove). I made mine with a bolt for the base in order to fit in the pritchet hole on the anvil. This lets me rotate it to whatever angle on the anvil face I want. Hope you can make sense of this. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bentiron1946 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Simple enough to make and won't break the bank in doing it either. Thanks for passing it along Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
