They are a lot of fun to make!

Would much rather hear the ring of steel on the anvil than music.

That is awesome.

Really cool.

Awesome video and instruction. Best video I've seen on forging a socketed spearhead. Thanks.

I love this project!

Veery good job sir

Thanks for the video. Did you forge weld the socket closed? I was very curious to see how you closed it and centered it. Much appreciated!

I had this question too, how did you close the hole?

nice.. im going to make one

I want one!!

nice love me some spears :D

that amazing. great job! what kind of forge is that?

👍🏼

Very marvlus and very much like but save your finger edge making time

woulda used used moter oil for get a black finish like that my self but after temper i usally heat treat good vid tho.

How did you close and center the Top of the socket? That's the part I'm most confused about.

Really cool project! Do you consider 5160 to be the ideal metal for a spear like this? Or do you consider any of the other steels ive seen you work on to be "better"?

5160 is a very tough steel so it what I tend to make a lot of swords and rough use blades out of it, and its pretty easy to work with!

This is some nice work. Im inspired

So cool how do you charge for a spear head

Great lookin spearhead. Question for ya. Will the socket now be considered the weak spot because the offset and how it wraps around shaft vs a split shaft and solid tang? I've thought about mskin a Spearhead like yours now for yrs but never pulled the trigger so to speak. God Bless

@CharlesJonesblades

The cone shape of the socket makes it very strong, it is much stronger than the shaft that it will get mounted on. The area of the spearhead most prone to possible damage will be the point.

Yes this Customer wanted the gap closed, so it was welded shut prior to normalizing and heat treating!

how do you put it on a stick?

Where do you get your steel

Are these for sale? I want one.

Pity you didn't show how you did the offset to line up the blade & socket..otherwise nice job..

At 7:16 you can see how I did it, I move the socket over the edge of the anvil and gently persuade the socket to be centered with the blade. I did a couple strikes like this to get it just where I wanted it but that is the jist.

just want to say there wasn't any tempering shown which means that blade could be very brittle and not truly functional

It was tempered twice at 450 degrees. I usually dont show any tempering vecause its pretty boring
