- This video shows how I forge my first rounding hammer, using techniques inspired by the work of blacksmith Brian Brazeal.

amazing work, i liked the wide angle where we could see your workshop, positioning of the forge, anvil, powerhammer, tools...
My feelings exactly!
This video really hit the nail on the head...
+Mac Ward woaw *winks and walks away*
This is very therapeutic to watch. Greetings from Sydney Australia!
Me to :)
I love watching Blacksmiths forge random Items. I think it's cool how they can shape a material like iron.
i like the camera angle of your whole work shop
excellent hammer and damn fine video to boot. Thank you for taking the time to make and share both.
Jim Turman Thanks!
I just re-watched this video for the 4 time. 1 of my favorite videos! definitely 1 of the best Blacksmithing channels.
thank you again friend.
Ha ha, great!
I had the pleasure of dealing with this man and have bought one of his hammers and have it delivered to Ireland. My opinion - its a work of art. You can tell by the detail on the hammer the passion and love this man has for his smith work. He is a gifted blacksmith. I hope to have the strength & health to swing this hammer for many years to come and pass on to my son at some stage. Thank you again Torbjörn. A delight dealing with you Sir.
Thank you very much!
Blacksmithing looks so goddamn satisfying... I really want to get started on it, but definitely as a hoobyist aswell. I could never sell a piece of art like this
With time and practice you can, don't sell yourself short
Loving the speed up sound of your powerhammer =) Very nice work!
Interesting to see the blacksmithing process. There has always been a sort of mystery behind this skill for me personally. Good to see people are keeping the practice alive in modern times
There is always such a since of satisfaction when you make something yourself. Very nice work.
i'd love to know forging as you do ! This is ever so cool to watch, and trying to learn just by watching !
This hammer is beautiful !
Thank you!
Amizing hammer, mate and what a wonderful video! Very informative, it's nice to see excellent quality european (metric system, yes!) bleacksmithing videos, finally! I have seen all your videos, great channel Torbjörn, keep forging and please keep making videos!
Nerfeel Thank you!
wow! what a work of art! The video was fantastic and I was mesmerized by the entire process! Thank you for sharing.
I watched this so long ago that now I can watch it again and it’s like a new video. Your videos are so awesome.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Beautiful work and excellent video skills.
Another really good video, detailing the entire hammer making process....Thanks! I really learn a lot from you...
Thanks!
Nice thorough video. I love the mini drawing dies
Torbjorn top notch. Hard work well rewarded with a thing of simple practical beauty!!
Anyone who just got dumped should watch this guys vids. so calming...
CommieHedgehog *I'm guessing you are speaking from experience?*
I thought you said "anywho who is taking a dump" I agree either way
blacksmith work what beautiful work
Truly a thing of beauty! Thanks for sharing your time and effort with us bro Anthony Kent
WOW! That came out really nice.
Awesome craftmanship! I'm a welder but I'd love to learn blacksmithing and get close to the skill you have some day!
Thank you!
This is such an awesome production Torbjörn, I keep finding myself back here watching it over and over. need to get myself a power hammer, yours is quiet compared to most or are you just turning the sound down when you come to edit? cheers!
Nathan
***** Thanks! Difficult to tell how loud it is from the video. I'm on auto gain control so the level will adjust itself. However I think the hammer is below average. For any power hammer, it probably depends really much on how it's mounted and in what environment it sits.
Beautiful, could watch you work all day!
that's real nice there, wish you had a bunch more videos. Thanks for sharing
BUILD EM UP BREAK DOWN
IT look so nice!
Me, too.
T-man that's a piece of functional artwork. Even Thor would be proud to wield it in his workshop.
I enjoyed watching this. I have only done decorative forging but this has motivated me to consider trying something a little more functional.
+Fireworxs2012 1045 is cheaper, easier to get hold of, forge and heat treat.
+Torbjörn Åhman how long did it take?
Faust1169 Don't quite remember, but about 3 h forging, 1 h grinding, 0,5 h heat treat, and 2 h making handle and mount handle. Lets say a days work incl. filming ... :)
Torbjörn Åhman Do u sell your Hammers ??
Torbjörn Åhman
what i wouldn't give for an auto hammer.
bravo
Just get someone else to hit it for you 😂
Impressive. Looks like you are learning your craft well. Thanks for letting us watch.
Beautiful craftsmanship! Also, a very relaxing video.
Apparently this guy buys his tools then turns them into blocks but puts the videos on TH-cam backwards.
Walter White Yep, don't tell anyone...
Torbjörn Åhman LOL
@@torbjornahman legend
Hello from Maine, USA!
.....can you make me one? lol
;) nice job!
The finished hammer looks very clean. As always the video was enjoyable. Thanks for posting.
There's something beautiful about making tools to use to make other tools. And just blacksmithing in general.
+THEtdub77 Yes, I agree.
MOLTENN COREEEEE!!!!
Is "sexy" a wrong adjective for a hammer?
Wow!! Great craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing.
Well worth the watch! Craftsmanship, Dieing Art !! Great Job !!!
If u need a hammer to forge a hammer who forged the first hammer and how
Thor ;-D
A guy with a lot of rocks
darude-sandstorm
Stone hammers: leather/plant fibers, hard stone, and a stick, forged by "cave men"
bronze hammer because they were cast not forged
Красиво!
This is beautiful. You are a credit to smiths everywhere
My son and i loved to watch your video. I am trying to teach him about how things used to be made before mass production. He is 3 and a half years old. He is now asking me to watch diggers but we will come back and look at more of your video's soon. :D
Stuart Moore Lovely! Thanks.
Wonder how the first metal hammer was made, What the hell hammered it :X
+TopkekBootyDubs Some stones probably....
+TopkekBootyDubs I asked same question myself :D
+Torbjörn Åhman or casted one ?
+shivoskate how did they cast it?
BLaZE Mobile
Definitely not cast...
Great vid! Love your massive anvil! - is it ok for one guy to say that to another guy?? :-)
A really enjoyable process to watch, many thanks!
Man those are good looking tools for something hand-forged
fortunaetly you have a power hammer... would have been a shit ton of work to forge this hammer with hand tools only... i mean it already is a bunch of work to forge some simple flat nib tongs if you have to draw out the reins with hand tools only
Using an electric hammer to make a normal hammer... That is so many kinds of funny. ;] Next project is to make an electric hammer using the hammer hammer?
after re-reading this... I realize it might come across as a criticism. I don't mean it that way. It is just that the irony is hysterical.
:) Most of the modern hammers made today are actually still forged. Drop forged by huge hammers.
Beautiful work.
Beautiful work
That's how real men work.
Torbjorn
Thanks for another quality film - it is inspiring :)
- I am a jewelry designer /goldsmith from Connecticut USA
-sometime I am making steel tools for myself, yet all my hammers are good quality made in Germany :)))
ok! Thanks!!
Great video thanks. You are showing some real skill and technique in this. I certainly learned a few things.
Absolutely awesome work. Great video. Thanks.
So relaxing to watch just lie back with a cold'y and learn .
looking good. NOT a waste of time looks like you are enjoying it looking forward to more
A thing of beauty...thanks for the education!

Beautiful work!
I like how this video goes straight to the work and skips the chit chat.
Beautiful beater!
Been smithing for around 5 months but have been metalworking all my work life only 10 years lol. I have found this video very helpfull and inspiring i think im about ready to make my first hammer. I started with a set of pipe grips a ball pein and anvil but have been slowly making my tool collectin larger. Have subscribed and will see what over knowledge i can learn from you. Cheers.
Dean Scrimshaw Great!
Nice. I love the shape of the finished product. Great video and awesome skill.
Beautiful job on the hammer. I can't get them here in Thailand where I'm retired. Soon I will try your technique. Have to finish building my forge first. Love watching your videos.
Great, good luck!

Awesome blacksmith's work. Can't wait for more videos!
Best regards, Greg
That is one nice hammer! Love the craftsmanship.
Beautifully made hammer. Superb!
Just love your videos. So informative. And these wonderful techniques have been practised for centuries, but have also provided a crucial link to the modern world.
