Nice!
Do you harden and temper the steel after forging? |

Not with the steel I am currently using. Right now I am using a pretty mild steel, so it wouldn't really harden up all that much.
I plan on starting to use some higher quality steel soon, and getting to practice hardening and tempering. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk |

This is so cool. I enjoy watching the show Forged in Fire where the guys make knives or other weapons from various pieces of metal. Keep up the hobby and we will see you on there.

Heck mate, that looks like so much fun I’ll bet your neighborhood guys are going to start hanging out at your house on Saturday afternoons. I only live a few miles away.

Wow, this is not what I expected! I thought I'd see Babe Ruth autographs and stolen credit cards!
