Hello from Ladysmith, BC, Canada. I have no need for a blacksmith's hammer but having watched this video and having been around horses most of my younger years I am now trying to talk myself out of making one. This is a wonderful demonstration of your ideas and skills. Thank you and have a great 2020.

I like to use a coarse flap disc on an angle grinder for shaping handles, messy but quick and actually quite controllable.

You should start a Scrap Metal Challenge series just so you can take your Scrap Wood Challenge intro and turn it into a metal song!

An unbalanced (face heavy) hammer is actually really nice for knife making. The weight helps keep the flat faced straight down without tilting sideways and making divots. So jealous of your belt grinder!

Thank you so much for this video My sister is new to blacksmithing and she is having a hard time finding hammers with the right size and weight for her. This video shows a good alternative.

Yas!!! When you start to forge your blacksmith Hammer I definitely want a video series on that. Still looking for property but will be building my own blacksmith Forge soon after I get some property so I will definitely need that video

Blacksmith apprentices start out making their own tools once they graduate from sweeping up the shop and manning the bellows. I would love to see videos whilst you are making yours. Sending lots of love ❤ from sunny 🌅 Arizona 🌵 USA 🗽

I started watching this because I was curious as to why you wouldn't just buy a cross pein hammer. I can fully see why, beautiful craftsmanship. Thank you

Incredible show of craftsmanship for sure! Thanks for the show.

Nice job! Thanks for sharing

Have you looked at - black bear forge - he has a lot of useful vids, he has one about avoiding tendon injury and talks about handle design and how it impact grip which can cause elbow tendon injury. He also uses a cross pein with the pien rotated 45 degrees from normal, I couldn’t figure it out until I noticed that the pein falls in line with the anvil when you take a normal comfortable stance in front of the anvil. All his stuff is worth watching.

This is so good. Love the homemade steel hammer wedges too; why didn’t I think of that!

I work for Vaughan and Bushnell mfg co. Out of Bushnell, IL USA and we make some of the best hammers and hand tools in the world. I work in the forge department. I started as a hammer operator and worked my way into maintenance and now I'm die maintenance in the forge department. I love my job and I love the forge department. It does get extremely hot as we have 12 slotted furnaces in our building and each furnace is around 2,200° F. But, it is a very hands on job and I've gotten a lot of experience and I've learned a lot from my job and it's an awesome environment to be in.

Very helpful video. Great job

Great work Brother! I look forward to your videos, I always learn so much. Had you been my shop teacher back in the day, I might have actually enjoyed the class. Thanks for taking the time to produce these videos.

I agree about using the rasp to shape a handle. Somehow it just seems right to use your hands to fit a tool that will be used by the same.

Some find wood handles to be superior for their jobs. Smiths tend to prefer wood handles for their performance. Additionally, wood handles resist damage from heat sources better than the composite.

In Russia we got old joke about this. Some country bought assembly line for Soviet fighter jets, and some knocked down kits. However, after assembly they got tractor, not a plane. One retry, two, three, rereading plans - still got tractors. Then they called original manufacturers to ask what's wrong. Their responce is: - Do you read assembly manual? You need to elaborately file the completed machine after the assembly!
