In the late 70’s, when I was messing around with live BONSIA trees, this was my favorite tree. Now in 2023 it is STILL my favorite tree!! Nice Job My Friend!!
spent over a year watching you and wallowing in self pity over my bad back and COPD last week i called it quits and started rebuilding my shop figured it may be painful but the enjoyment will be worth it Thank you for your videos they helped push me off my ass
I love the combination of the music from the forge and hammer with the music from Wintergatan! This was a good example of how it's possible to combine keeping the working sounds clean, and still adding atmosphere to parts of a video using music. Thanks Torbjörn and Martin for the inspirations
I cannot help picturing of Torbjörn forging Wintergatan’s marble machine out of steel. I believe he can do that if he wants to but I like his ginko leaf and iris better.
You have this amazing ability to see the beauty in something ordinary and shine a light on it and then recreate it in a way that baffles me. What you make is truely amazing. Thank you 👍
Awsome blacksmithing! I've just tried that myself befor seeing your attempt at this. I might have to start all over, yours is looking much better and i learned a lot. Thanks!
One of my favorite TH-cam channels. Excellent editing, sound, style, and just the right amount of talking. I’ve loved everything from the lemonade, painting windows, the garden and of course the forging. EXCELLENT - THANK YOU for sharing with us.
Hi Torbjörn.....just the idea of forging such a thoughtful and delicate leaf out of steel says so much about your artistry and your humanity. Very fine effort.....be well.
Once again Beautiful! Your hammer blows are unbelievably consistent and precise! Your mastery of delicate or large works are fantastic to watch Please keep them coming Be Safe Theron
I really enjoyed this little project! It's the juxtaposition of something so delicate rendered in metal. Just breathtaking.😊 From a forging perspective, it was interesting to watch how quickly the heat leaves such a small workpiece.
We have a proverb in Iraq that says you hit the teacher with a thousand times. Thank you, artist and creator, and I hope to learn from you this art and creativity.
Such phenomenal workmanship and precision goes into every piece you make Torbjorn! This piece captured the true beauty of the Ginkgo leaf remarkably well! keep up the good work!!!
Ciao caro, complimenti davvero che armonia nel creare quella foglia. La tua mano trasforma in ferro ogni oggetto, e ogni tua creazione sembra e' il frutta della passione che porti nel cuore. Non smettere mai, un forte abbraccio.
Watching such a video is like listening to good music, the result is the same - you get pleasure from watching it. Thank you Torbjorn, everything is great as always!
Oh god, that's beautiful. Thank you for your video, sir. I really love the atmosphere around you and your work, really calming even though it's smithing it just calms me down.
I love your blacksmithing videos, but your cooking videos are my favorites! Would you consider doing more of them? They are really unbelievably soothing and interesting!!! Thank you so much for sharing!
I've seen quite a few artists, in my 60+ years, but few who did such good work with a hammer and forge! Always a pleasure to watch you work! Didn't realize that Martin did the music. He is an artist, as well. His using the LEGO Techics parts for the programming wheels, is what first attracted me, and that song, well, just amazing! steve
Some people don't like video's with music, other's don't want anything that doesn't involve blacksmithing (garden's). At the end of the day TH-cam is like pants...... to many dicks and a-holes!! Think about it this way, though, hitting both like and dislike both do the same thing in the whole TH-cam algorithms and move the video higher up the recommended video list. TH-cam counts any interactions as possitive 👍
Hold on let me catch my breath! That is very awesome. You've made my year, and many others too. Thank you sir for the excellent video and for participating in the # Blacksmithfamilytree project. Very much appreciate you fir all you do for us! 🙏 Blessed day and well wishes Sir Crawford out ⚒️🧙♂️
Very beautiful design turned out very beautiful and spot on. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work. Forge on. Can't wait to see what you decide to forge up next
Just rewatched the iris video last night. Then wake up to this! Always looking forward for new content! Never disappointed. Hope all is well! Stay safe. Be blessed!
Пока смотрел, нахлынуло столько эмоций и переживаний.. Воспоминаний из жизни.. Столько не бывало от современных дорогих блокбастеров. Я не ожидал такого эффекта от небольшого видео и, кажется, это и должно называться настоящим искусством. Возможно, это от того, что сам хочу научиться ковать красивые вещи. Спасибо за видео!
I was made one of these as a gift for my sister and it was stollen by a guest in my house. It was beautifully done but I guess they needed it more than they felt my sister did.
Thank you Torbjörn! As always a very relaxing and fascinating video of your craftsmanship. To the viewers, how is it possible that so many people watch and enjoy but forget to hit the like button? Come on click!
The amazing thing is that just yesterday I uploaded a metalworking video in which I make a brass Ginkgo leaf🤣 the coincidence is amazing. You did a superb job with that leaf
I'm also growing ginkgo trees in pots! I want to plant as many of them as possible. Here in the uk we don't see many of them, and I'm guessing it's the same for sweden. They are such beautiful and rare trees, and the last of their ancient genus. They deserve to be as widespread as they used to be.
In the late 70’s, when I was messing around with live BONSIA trees, this was my favorite tree. Now in 2023 it is STILL my favorite tree!!
Nice Job My Friend!!
I think it is mine too! Have one in a pot... even tried to bonsai:fy one, but sadly it died on me. Probably got too dry at some point.
Winters are HORRIBLE here!! Probably worse where you live!!@@torbjornahman
I'm late on this one, but as an art blacksmith we are always inspired by nature surounding us. Great job and it is beautiful
There are some legendary ginkgo trees in Kyoto. This piece captures their beauty.
Thanks for posting this.
Thank you so much for just sharing your wonderful skill and NOT babbling incessantly like so demonstrators!!! Great Ginko leaf.
spent over a year watching you and wallowing in self pity over my bad back and COPD last week i called it quits and started rebuilding my shop figured it may be painful but the enjoyment will be worth it Thank you for your videos they helped push me off my ass
Wow, that's great! Thanks
good for you. going to hurt one way or the other lol might as well live while you can
I love the combination of the music from the forge and hammer with the music from Wintergatan! This was a good example of how it's possible to combine keeping the working sounds clean, and still adding atmosphere to parts of a video using music. Thanks Torbjörn and Martin for the inspirations
Glad you liked it! Thanks
Well said and I agree 100%

You have this amazing ability to see the beauty in something ordinary and shine a light on it and then recreate it in a way that baffles me. What you make is truely amazing. Thank you 👍
Thank you so much!
That is such a fantastic creation. I can imagine a wall of leaves. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent.
Thanks!
Awsome blacksmithing! I've just tried that myself befor seeing your attempt at this. I might have to start all over, yours is looking much better and i learned a lot. Thanks!
Very nice work, I especially liked the realistic texture in the leaf itself and then add the leaf end stem detail and it is simply beautiful.
This piece seemed to resonate with me on an emotional level. Love it.
I agree, I don’t know what it is, but it makes me wish I was in a faraway fantasy land making trinkets like this
Me too!
I live in Brazil and watch all your videos. Beautiful work !! Congratulations on another successful presentation.
André Luís.

Kärlek till naturen uttryckt i järn. Så vackert, Thorbjörn!
Total mastery of process and materials. Beautiful!
Hej Torbjorn! Thanks for all the good inspiration and your amazing work. Love from Greece.
Hey, thanks!
Hi Torbjörn.....just the idea of forging such a thoughtful and delicate leaf out of steel says so much about your artistry and your humanity. Very fine effort.....be well.
Your videography is just as creative and clean as you're forging. Always a pleasure to watch
Thanks!
You have the eye of an artist.
I've been watching your videos for a while and you are indeed a very talented blacksmith. Thank you for sharing your skill with us.
Yet another Beautiful and spectacularly forged creation from the master. Thank You Sir. Peace and Love to You and Yours.
A pleasure to watch you forge.
As always a marvelous show of skill and art! I hope you and your family are remaining safe and healthy during this world wide pandemic.
So beautiful. And what a treat to hear some music from your fellow countrymen, (I'm a long time follower of theirs too) it fits well with your work.
Once again Beautiful! Your hammer blows are unbelievably consistent and precise! Your mastery of delicate or large works are fantastic to watch
Please keep them coming
Be Safe

Thank you! Yes it heats up and cools down fast!
We have a proverb in Iraq that says you hit the teacher with a thousand times. Thank you, artist and creator, and I hope to learn from you this art and creativity.
Very beautiful as always. Your “as forged” pieces are just absolutely top notch.
Such phenomenal workmanship and precision goes into every piece you make Torbjorn! This piece captured the true beauty of the Ginkgo leaf remarkably well! keep up the good work!!!
An artist with fire and a hammer.....the best there is. JC
Ciao caro, complimenti davvero che armonia nel creare quella foglia. La tua mano trasforma in ferro ogni oggetto, e ogni tua creazione sembra e' il frutta della passione che porti nel cuore. Non smettere mai, un forte abbraccio.
Thanks!
I find these videos very comforting, somehow.
That is a beautiful piece of work!!! You never cease to amaze me on the different things you do!!!
Wow - perfekt hammer-control on this very thin piece of steel, nothing has burned - and (like always) a great video! Thanks a lot! :-)
Thanks again!
Watching such a video is like listening to good music, the result is the same - you get pleasure from watching it. Thank you Torbjorn, everything is great as always!
Thank you!
Oh god, that's beautiful.
Thank you for your video, sir.
I really love the atmosphere around you and your work, really calming even though it's smithing it just calms me down.
Thanks!
I love how so many of your pieces are nature inspired.
I love your blacksmithing videos, but your cooking videos are my favorites! Would you consider doing more of them? They are really unbelievably soothing and interesting!!! Thank you so much for sharing!
Complimenti ... i tuoi lavori mettono una gran pace interiore.
Love the collaboration with Wintergatan - the music is so fitting and soothing.
Piece of mind is what i find in your videos.
Thank you for sharing.
I've seen quite a few artists, in my 60+ years,
but few who did such good work with a hammer
and forge! Always a pleasure to watch you work!
Didn't realize that Martin did the music. He is
an artist, as well. His using the LEGO Techics
parts for the programming wheels, is what first
attracted me, and that song, well, just amazing!
steve
Thanks!
When we mimic nature with such perfection, Ki is abundant and clear! Notably genki. Thank You Torjorn for sharing the Ki with your fine videography!
Thank you sir and happy autumn 🍂 to u...may ur winter be beautiful and not so frigid. I’ll think of ya here at the beaches of South Carolina.
I find it interesting that anyone would give a video like this a thumbs down. Must be envy and just wanting to be negative. Very nice work.
what's not to like !

Beautiful video and nice choice of Wintergatan music. I approve. Thanks for uploading this, it make my day.
Truly beautiful work, you make everything with such flair, and make everything flow with ease, every thing you do shows the master smith you are.
Your work is very good and professional. I follow all your work
Hold on let me catch my breath! That is very awesome. You've made my year, and many others too. Thank you sir for the excellent video and for participating in the
# Blacksmithfamilytree project.
Very much appreciate you fir all you do for us!
🙏 Blessed day and well wishes Sir
Crawford out ⚒️🧙♂️
As always, thank you so much!!
All the jobs are beautiful. You have a beautiful gift for eculating iron. Best regards
It always amazes me when you make metal look delicate.
Very beautiful design turned out very beautiful and spot on. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work. Forge on. Can't wait to see what you decide to forge up next
Just rewatched the iris video last night. Then wake up to this! Always looking forward for new content! Never disappointed. Hope all is well! Stay safe. Be blessed!
There is some kind of poetry in this video
❤️
Very nice! Never seen that shape of a leaf. Cool! Thank you and God Bless you sir!

Always a pleasure watching you work. The things you create are amazing and wonderful. Please keep doing what you're doing! Thanks!!!
Simple elegance. Great video all the way around. These are one of my favorite shapes.
What a beautiful piece. I know you do traditional work but this is outstanding. Artwork at another level.
You're exactly the kind of blacksmithing channel I was looking for. Thanks for the content.
Thanks!
I was made one of these as a gift for my sister and it was stollen by a guest in my house. It was beautifully done but I guess they needed it more than they felt my sister did.
You made that look easy. Most couldn't. Nicely done!
Great piece of work like to watch talented people like you Sir!
One flower for remember , about our short life, art resist for eternity... Thanks maestro...
Beautiful leaf forged. Love the texture made by hammer👍👍👍
Thank you Torbjörn! As always a very relaxing and fascinating video of your craftsmanship.

Very Nice! I always enjoy your videos they inspire so many ideas that I would never think of on my own
Great! Thanks

beautiful work, love the music..
So much poetry in this work! Well done and thank you for sharing.
Hello from Brazil. I love your work. You are a Master
Very nice and great idea for Christmas presents
The amazing thing is that just yesterday I uploaded a metalworking video in which I make a brass Ginkgo leaf🤣 the coincidence is amazing. You did a superb job with that leaf
Cool! :)
Another awesome detailed work and wonderful video. Thank you.
Very nice and great to see you using Wintergatan misic. I did enjoy thanks
wow~ wintergatan's music , i love it, iv been follow the mmx build progress the whole time. a huge fan.
Great! Thanks
oh my god, the crossover between my favorite blacksmith and favorite musicians...
I should just go ahead and move to Sweden, right?
Right!
Well done, ginkgo is my favorite tree, so this one was extra fun to watch. Thanks.
Mine too I think!
I thought that music was Wintergaten . Great choice for the production of yet another beautiful thing .
What a beautiful work, well made👍🔥⚒
Beautiful forging work and back-ground music.
Always a pleasure to see that you've uploaded again! Beautiful work and excellent video, as always!
Thank you!
I'm also growing ginkgo trees in pots! I want to plant as many of them as possible. Here in the uk we don't see many of them, and I'm guessing it's the same for sweden. They are such beautiful and rare trees, and the last of their ancient genus. They deserve to be as widespread as they used to be.
Great! Sadly the climate here is a bit harsh for them...but you can see them in botanical gardens here and there in Sweden.
Beautiful. And it's so realistic. You are an artist.
