I'm a product design student. I see metals cast, CNC cut and even 3D printed. Until this video I had never fully appreciated the skill and beauty involved in hand forging metals. Such a wonderful process. I'd love to see more
Thanks a lot for this comment Tom. thats what i love about this craft, every thought is visible within the hot steel, the hammer speaks the mind if you like. in a conversation with the fire, something that only this can give you. thats what drew me into this craft. i have a few more videos up so check them out if you havent already, Cheers!

***** beautiful profession, i would be proud to be a Blacksmith, such a dedication! you could see in your hands the fundation of how civilization started with all it´s bad and good things. Keep it up sir!
Came to watch a leaf be made, ended up chilling to these cool island beats
That's it, I'm subscribing! Excellent no frills instructional videos like this are needed. Great!
Good demo dude. Well explained, good lighting, good camera position. I'll send beginners your way. Hope you make more.
This is the best video I've seen yet on how to forge a basic leaf. Well produced with explanations along the way make it stand above the other videos on TH-cam. Great work!
You sir hit like a tank. Very nice work, good control effective use of a good orange heat. I am very impressed.
thanks Nathan, that video chilled me out when I really needed it. More please.
I love your videos, nice music, great job!
Oye que exelente video soy de Mexico simplemente eres un Maestro
great video. a leaf like that would make for an exquisite arrow head.
Its the same process Emile, just needs a socket or a tang on the other end and a steeper angle of bevel. its a great idea for another video.
Cheers!
im just starting blacksmithing and i have no idea where to get my metals and what type of metals to use? Please help it may seem like a stupid question but can i get metal at home depot i dont exactly have a scrap yard to go to.
How to forge a leaf video 5 minutes long. How to forge a simple leave video 15 minutes long.
Thank you, good sir, for not posting a bunch of hubbub I'm not even here for!
Аккуратный, красивый листик!
sweet forge, what kind and brand is it or did you make it? if you did make it it looks amazing, very well made
Great tutorial man, my girlfriend is away for a little while, so I' going to try and make this for her while she's gone. One question, if I wanted to curl the leaf, should I do it before or after I put in the veins?
AFTER!! nice one, yeh do it after as when the veins are done on the flat its easier to get the symmetry also if it were curled then you would have a gap underneath it so it would be knocked flat again to get the veins in.
Im sure she will love it.
Good luck and let me know how you got on!
All the best
Nathan
How did you get on dude??
I hurt my shoulder working out, so I haven't been able to work on it much :\ I made a couple of attempts, even made my own chisel to put the veins in, and was finally getting the hang of it, and then the shoulder incident. As soon as it clears up though I'll be back on it!
***** Hey man, thanks again for the great tutorial! I gave her the leaf last week and she loved it! My leaf ended up being a bit longer and and thinner than the one in the video, and I took some steel wool and scrubbed down good to give it a semi-shiny luster to it while keeping the veins dark. So ya, this was one of my first projects and it turned out pretty well, she even wants me to make her another now, hahaha.
Good demonstration.
LogJam thats a cool name, thanks a lot, thats what im aiming for, clear precise vids that are easy to follow, thanks for watching!
Nathan
very nicely done !
+George Dennis Thank you!
Mejor explicado no se puede
Thanks, im going to go try this now!
awesome video
thank you jake
No problem ;) Editing Program just sometimes decides to DO ist this way ^^ And I have not yet found the problem ^^ It just sometimes renders the Film the worng way ^^ So: just test a while. I hope for many new, good videos ;)
Mate what do you think of those Swann forges?
Nice work!
Very nice vid ;-) well filmed ;-
)but... the vid is a little bit small. Not the definition...1080p is okay.... but why no full screen? ^^
ware do you get the share metel?
Would it be possible to make a bottle opener with a leaf handle like this?
Yes that is possible, the mass is there either in 1/2 inch bar or you could use flat bar and isolate the leaf part using fullering techniques like i did on the Toasting fork video. I want to come back to leaves again as this was one of my first vids and since this ive learned so much more. Give it a go!
I'm soon moving out to a more isolated location, and getting my first anvil & forge setup! I will be trying this as my first project :) love your videos, keep em commin' ;)
Great news! Its an easy first project but get plenty of steel to practice many. id suggest forge a load of leaves then a few openers and then combine the two with the same stock. Let me know how you get on!
Is there a way to make the edges of the veins look less sharp?
Braden Tanner you can use a fuller
How much are those forges mate?
is this a easy job for a beginner forger?
Yes it is as with anything though, practice practice practice! Have fun Joel!
thanks :D
joel cunha
How did you get on??
When's the how to forge an entire tree video? :P
In all seriousness, amazing work. Now to try it for myself...
Cheskak Haha i would love to do that for a video but unfortunately i dont have the time. How did it go, did you make one in the end?
***** It went alright. Ended up turning it into a fire rake.

Why do I feel like I'm listening to bad 80s porno music
Because you are listening to bad 80's porn music, terrible isn't it... Needs changing for sure.
that is no 80s orin music. it sweet sweet reggae music. thumbs up for video and soundtrack ;)
I was about to say the same thing
Because you’re very familiar with it.
looked like you was making a spear head.
Its the same principle but more angled to bevel each side, but now you mention it, that would make a great video too.
Looked like you was sucking as grammar.
Mister Mouse Use "were" in the place of was, and also use "at" in the place of as. If your going to be a grammar nazi, use proper grammar and punctuation.
