4 Hand Forged Split Crosses: HOW TO!
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
This is one of my most favorite forging pieces to make, the classic Split Cross! It can be made 1000 different ways with all kinds of materials, so for this video I'm showing how I make my standard, forge texture split cross.
The starting material is 5 inches of 1/2" square mild steel stock. Proportions and cut lengths are all personal preferences!
Be sure to leave a comment about what you think about these crosses, how you do it differently, or what questions you have about the process.
Thank you for watching! Be sure to like this video and subscribe to my channel for even more bladesmithing and blacksmithing videos!

Thanks! That spring punch works great on steel and it's really good at breaking windows 😂
Thanks for educating! What was that rosin like thing in a can, you applied to the surface at the end?

Thank you! It is Johnson's Paste Wax to help protect and seal the steel.
I got a question and it's really not relevant to this video but I can't find your part two of your canister Damascus video... what's up?
Man that loose hardy is bothersome for some reason
Weirdest center punch Ive ever seen
