As a proffesional blacksmith with hand tools specialty, including chisels, I must say- good work. Hard to belive it's your first one.

I guess when you get experienced enough from previous 'first tries' you learn to avoid those things and plan ahead more. Not speaking from personal experience, in my mid 20s still a child.

Im in the same boat, a blacksmith of 14 years specializing in tool production and I was impressed by the overall quality, as well as his partial success in forge welding the bit. Most newcomers cant get a forge weld down for a while, but Id say he’ll have it within a few tries. Just goes to show that true craftsman talent does in fact translate and transfer between fields.

Man, this chisel is looking weirder and weir...oh that's the part that connects to the handle!

That camber of speech of yours and your calm demeanor make watching you fun. Your exquisite attention to detail and careful execution make you a master.

I just live the fact that that was your first time forge welding and you came away with not only a successful weld but a beautiful and useful tool in the end. Wonderful work Mr. Pask

Aluminium foil - only genius can do that. Nice CHISEL ☺ Cheeers!

Grinders and paint make me the welder I ain't 😁

I just don't manage to sharpen my chisel and you simply make it yourself. RESPECT!

Made by hand, 10x better than all these so called "blacksmiths" using hydraulic and pneumatic tools now a days. Awesome work! Keep it up!

I love your videos. No BS, No sponsorship you just get right into and you explain as you go without dragging it on. Built a set of truck drawers off your videos, don't change how you do them!

Dear Neil, I've been watching your videos for sometime, I'd liked to say you're a great teacher, thank you for your amazing effort and sharing all your knowledge and experiences here. That's priceless. What you do is a great example of teaching and education. I believe governments need to learn from you how to approach the younger generations to help them to become real persons who are also helpful individuals for the society. Thank you very much again. Love from Istanbul. And your photos are amazing... Keep on taking!

I like the rugged looks of low spots and dimples. Nice work. Thanks.

I don't envy your skills. I envy your attitude and motivation.

Yep, just wanted to ask the same thing, but you got it first. =)

This is an excellent video on forging sockets, even though you're a beginner at it. Everyone else just shows you how to do it on a power hammer. I'm an experienced bladesmith, but sockets aren't in my current wheelhouse, so this is really helpful. Bladesmithing is simple, compared to blacksmithing, or forging woodworking tools. It leaves a lot of gaps in knowledge.

I like the hack with the kitchen foil

"In case no one was certain where I'm from, here's an enormous nope rope which strikes me as a bit odd for this time of year. Welcome to Oz."

thats NOT a chisel..... THIS IS A CHISEL. SORRY I COULDN'T RESIST. YOU ARE AN AMAZING CRAFTSMAN. BEAUTIFUL SHOP WITH THE SKILLS TO BACK IT UP. THE STUFF YOU TURN OUT IS AT THE TOP OF THE LIST. THANK YOU SHARING AND TEACHING ALSO. THE WORK-AROUNDS YOU USE ARE AWESOME.

beautiful. i've watched blacksmithing videos for almost 10 years and never blacksmithed. i am a traditional wood worker though and do some timber framing. some day i'll blacksmith a big ole slick chisel.

I didn't know your channel 6 months ago. Now it's one of the ones I look forward to. Every project blows me away. Thanks for sharing your talents.

That method of using the caliper to carve in a depth cut into the wood is brilliant lol you just sand to the bottom of the cut and you’re at the correct diameter. Awesome!

I liked the foil trick for getting the inside shape of the socket. Clever.

I cannot take my eyes off the screen, I stay transfixed until it ends. I watch the video twice to see what I missed each time I blink. Lol. Great Job. It's a joy to watch your video.

Every time I see that big belt sander I'm filled with envy, that thing is amazing

Your metalworking skills continue to progress/impress. Love your work! Keep it up!

Nice chisel. Well done. I love the tip to use aluminium foil to get the shape of the inside of the socket. I have some socket chisels which need new handles so the tip will be useful. Dave.

It’s a great tip, I’ve heard of using plasticine but foil wouldn’t leave a residue.

From just about any other KZread channel, I imagine the title "Handmade Forged Socket Chisel" would have registered to my jaded self as a desperate move from a KZread-Maker out of video ideas. I would already be anticipating a snoozer. But from PaskMakes, all I thought was "this is gonna be good." And it was amazing. Managed to show every important detail, to not over or underexplain anything, and to actually make a sneaky-gorgeous, beautifully proportioned chisel which appears completely functional and near indestructible, with minimal tools/equipment. I feel like Neil could make a Strativarious in a week, starting with just a hammer and a file.

Wow amazing. Forging a decent socket always looked like a magic trick to me. Nicely done.

A beautiful large chisel! Nice ergonomics! p.s. Loved your off-grid coffee machine..))

I like your working style , the spanner calipers & tinfoil were great 👍

Good job on the forge welding! Beautiful result.

That is fantastic. Its amazing what you can make with a relatively simple setup.

I never cease to be amazed by your mastery of every skill you attempt. Well done!

I quite like the little dents in it. Really gives some character

Wow! Lovely big chisel, and some seriously good skills on display. I wish I could be only a fraction as talented as you.

What a beauty! So, that one down and 50 more chisel and gouge profiles to do...

What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship .

Really enjoy your channel.....very inventive and not afraid to try anything. This video brought back memories of my father, who was a blacksmith whenever he needed to be and was very good at it. Thanks.

Love the true workmanship. As one wood expect from hand forged tools some imperfections that make it unique. Enjoy your Chanel.

That was cool! Fun project and you have a great attitude! "If the forge weld doesn't work, I'll grind it off and do it again." And it totally worked a dream. Well done!

I found my great grandfather's chisel, very similar to yours, rusting in the dirt behind granny's house. Can't wait to restore it.

That is one nice chisel! It's appropriately sized for your slithery visitor!

I'm practically drooling... Thats so cool!

I have made many many sockets. For chisels, spearheads, socketed axes, arrowheads, candelholders and so on. I started blacksmithing 18-19 years ago. But i have NEVER EVER thought of that alufoil trick. That is absolutly brilliant ! :-) (but also made me feel a little stupid ;-) But i thinks thats good sometimes, it makes us humble ;-) ) I really enjoy your videos. I learn alot, i´m very impressed by you. You have so many brilliant and clever solutions. Thank you very much for the work you do :-)

Thanks for sharing.

It may be a regional difference, but these outlandishly big chisels are called timber slicks here. This is freaking awesome, and I look forward to Scrap Wood Challenge getting a whole lot scrappier :D

Hi, one of the things I like about your channel is that you are happy to try anything, and do quite well. I love your scrap wood challenge any only wish I had something like that around here. I should not complain as I have a supply of six foot pallets but they are all softwood.

Lovely job on the chisel Neil, you certainly haven't shied away from trying your hand at some advanced techniques, despite being relatively new to the craft. Thank you for sharing your experiences.

Been waiting for this video since your Instagram post a week or so ago! Very nice work Neil, I would guess only a handful of these big mortice chisels have been hand forged in the last century so you are now one of that tiny number! As too it’s usefulness, I have a chisel that size and its used very often, nothing like a big heavy blade for roughing into heavy timber. You will use it more often as you get use to it! Well done, great work!

Great chisel, I could use that every day at work.

That’s an amazing job pal well done!

That's a beautiful chisel great job

Beautiful great job looks awesome well done

A true craftsman well done

Always enjoy watching. Don't know how I missed this one...cheers...rr Normandy, Fra.

It looks amazing, what a creativity!

You are a man of many talents! Your videos are well edited and always a genuine pleasure to watch. I would love to see a Q&A video about you. I am curious how you got into woodworking, what you do for employment (besides KZread), were you born in Australia, etc. It would also be fun to see your property and have a shop tour. Thanks for sharing!

That looks pretty... slick!

As a Wood worker myself I would say absolutely beautiful work I would love to use that chisel with Shaping projects ..I would love to see you make a V chisel

La satisfaccion de crear tus propias herramientas...felicidades mi amigo

Beautiful tool! I really connect to the way you think and work. Keep rocking! Cheers!

That is very useful tool .I especially like the finish.

Damn ! I need one of those chisels in my workshop , awesome job Neil

A useful piece of art. Congrats on how it turned out!

Love the outcome!

@@PaskMakes I agree, forge welding is not so simple. Congratz! Hmm... i think i will try making my own hook knife this week - will be doing blacksmith work for the first time ☺ My Mora knife is working ok, but it doesn't feel perfect. It's a bit too slim and i want to make a hook knife in a water drop shape, just like Lee Stoffer makes. Bought some charcoal today and i will make a simple forge Torbjorn style - in a box of sand with a little blower. THANK YOU AWESOME PEOPLE FOR SHARING IDEAS ON KZread!♥
