    Very cool, personally I like the combination of welding / riveting and smithing on the same piece. The oiling looks like the most satisfying part just about . .

    Fantastic. So many people think knives, axes or blades of some kind when they hear the word blacksmith....In my opinion, THIS type of blacksmithing is much more interesting! Out with forged in fire, In with Crafted in Coal!!

    I started blacksmithing with an interest in forging knives which quickly turned into a bigger interest in artistic blacksmithing work. I do want to make a few knives / swords in the future.

    Trenton Tye of Purgatory Ironworks is trying to do exactly that! He is getting something going with that format called black iron, a show more focused on traditional blacksmithing!

And I would like to say Watching you young man has been a good learning experience to me so thank you for the inspiration and keep up the spectacular work you do . Cheers.

    Fantastic work! This shows why hand-forged items aren’t cheap. You really got the face right. It’s easy to get one eye a bit out of place. Putting the oil on hot - or burning it with a little torch (or in the forge) can give a nice long lasting black finish.

    Fair enough. Your finish looks excellent. I had problem as you with drift getting stuck, and I realised that I needed to stop hitting them when the workpiece cool down a little bit. Doing it in two or three goes seemed to work a lot better for me.

    Great looking dragon!! If you want to quiet your anvil without fiddeling around with magnets, I recommend to put alt least 2 layerys of bituninous sheetings between anvil and stand. it will compensate any small differences of hight. The anvil will settle down by a short time. The bituninous sheetings will damp the ringing noise pretty good. best wishes Christoph

Really love hes holding the candles. I wanna do something similar for my alter. I was thinking riveting on arms and legs and making a tail to hold the candle. 🍻
