About me:
Hi! My name is Philip and one of the people behind Lufolk. I have always been interested in the simple things in life. When I look back on history I get inspired and fascinated by the people who came up with all the smart solutions to make our everyday life easier. What you can accomplish with a few tools and great skills is impressive. The first time I got that feeling: I made this! This will be useful! Was when I made a wooden spoon as a kid. And think that was the start, I have ever since been interested in making things.

A really great idea. I will try to do it without a power hammer. Thank you for inspiration.

Awesome Idea! 2 of those would look great on my alter! I started smithing a year ago and when I get a bit better I want to try and make these. Thanks for recording the process, great work!

[@tombrown879]

What a great idea. i Love it. Will have to give it a go in the shop sometime.

[@lufolkcrafts]

Awesome! Thank you!

I really enjoyed this video!
I feel transported back in time. Imagining the village smith forging a number of these at the same time, just before raiding season!
Though, I think usage as a candle holder is a little more family friendly than the traditional usage for hunting and warfare!

[@Quinnsworkshop_hq]

Oh, I forgot to mention how impressed I was with the process of creating the wooden base! You truly are a man of many talents!

[@lufolkcrafts]

Thank you very much my friend!

[@carsemonkey1]

Respect for the work with the knife. I would have resorted to power tools from the start.

[@lufolkcrafts]

Thank you!

[@Quinnsworkshop_hq]

As the saying goes: “Hands, not machines”.
I believe there is a place in this world for power tools. But I also believe many people have lost connection with the art of working with their hands. Myself included. People like Lufolk and others are great at displaying a love for working with their hands, all the while using power tools (power hammer etc) when it is needed!
Do you do any craft work or trade work? :)

[@lufolkcrafts]

@@Quinnsworkshop_hq i agree

[@carsemonkey1]

@@Quinnsworkshop_hq I do leather craft, I play around with carpentry sometimes and plan to learn blacksmithing. I made my first pair of tongs

[@Quinnsworkshop_hq]

@@carsemonkey1 nice work! I am interested in smithing, but have not started yet! I do a lot of leathercraft though. What are your favourite projects?

[@motd8931]

Awesome work. I've been wanting to attempt a spear/javelin head for a bit. Now I don't need a haft to use one! 😁

[@lufolkcrafts]

Haha perfect!😃

[@Quinnsworkshop_hq]

Great idea! I haven’t started any smithing work yet, but when I eventually do, I must attempt one of these, though I may end up purchasing a couple from @lufolk before then! The more the merrier.
