Forging a Decorative Rounding Hammer

[@NeilGraham.I.M.F]

The simple yet elegant lines of that hammer make it a real pleasure to look at. Great job! Somebody's going to be very pleased

[@justgonnagetbetter1037]

Oh that hammer Roy! Gorgeous!

[@Dfrantz87]

Very nice work Roy! Just started making hammers myself!

[@mountainwolf1]

God bless you for all your happiness and hard work to forge the steel. Thank God and you for your wisdom and strength. Many blessings to your family.

I don't remember you not using propane, but I now have a ribbon burner and enjoy it, finding it better for most things Sir
Thanks for showing

Very nice build, very inspiring. Thank you for sharing this.

[@chewyakarieckenicholas6049]

Very beautiful hammer I hope that I can make one sometime soon

[@KeithBair]

That has got to be the coolest hammer ever! What alloy is the steel and what was the final weight? Looks like a good metal mover. God bless

[@Sigma-sj7mq]

Very, very nice!

[@Psyrus88]

Beautiful, BEAUTIFUL hammer. Two questions:
1. What does the Japanese inscription mean?
2. Did you temper the ends after hardening them?

[@ruirizzi]

It's chinese. Those were the characters 大 (Big) 黑 （black) 天 (sky). Got this from his Instagram post.

[@jasonmacpherson936]

Varyv cool project.

[@ancellsadventures]

Very nice!

[@stefankarlsson9401]

Very nice👌😊

[@joeboei]

How long does the texturing punch tip last?

[@kennywoods8713]

Boy that's a slim hammer eye punch. Is it any easier with the thin punch?. Keep up the fine work and all the best from the UK.

[@ruirizzi]

Congrats, Roy. This piece is marvelous. You describe it as "decorative", but would it be usable for blacksmithing?

[@ddayinvader6487]

What kind of chisels are you using?

[@grayem76]

#Blacksmithquestionoftheday why was the ends of the steel so fishmouthed when you started

[@holsterbuddy3783]

Wow

[@PogyForge]

What does the Kanji say?

[@grandmajosephine383]
