Forging a broad hewing axe
Ғылым және технология
Join me in the forge as I hand forge a broad hewing axe from raw steel using traditional blacksmithing techniques. Follow along as I shape, grind, and sharpen the blade, and learn about the tools and equipment used in a traditional blacksmith shop. Don't miss this opportunity to witness the ancient art of blacksmithing in action! you can found broad hewing axe on my web page: rovtarforge.com/hand-forged-t...

thank you for the video! your bearded viking axe video from a few years back served as great inspiration when i was a beginner blacksmith. still at it today, thanks to you and other great sources of information and inspiration for this beautiful, beautiful craft!
Impressed with all your work, but this is my favourite! Beautiful axe, and one day i will have one!
Happy to see one video from you. I'm proudly owner of one of your hammers.

Thank you for your purchase. We will try to be more present on social media from now on :)
Nice job!
good job! a forging a proper broadaxe with an off set eye and the having the toe and the heel of the blade slightly arced is a challenging piece to make. fine work!
You do amazing work, young man. I really like your forging machines, they seem to make short work of your pieces. Enjoyed the video, so now I’ll be watching some more of them. Thank you for sharing. Texas
yes!
You have done a fantastic job man 😃😃
Very nice! Also intensely jealous of that friction screw press

Those are great machines indeed, I liked that one that much that I have 3 now :)
What steel did you use? 1045? Also nice job
I have a question about your anvil, was the whole thing originally rounded on the top and you machine and a flap on it? Or did you get the anvil like that? Its very unique, i love your shop great hammers, great work

It is basically a french pig anvil that was quite heavily damaged, so I machined a flat surface on it so it is useful. I plan on welding on a new top plate when I get the time. Thanks for the kind words!
