Join ABS Mastersmith
Ed Caffrey at the forge as he walks you through Basic Bladesmithing.
If you are a beginner, this video will help you develop the foundation
necessary for forging your own blades. If you are already familiar
with the forge, Ed's methods will help you enhance the quality of
your work.
Each packed with valuable information, this video is the first
in a series of Bladesmithing videos with Ed Caffrey. When you
have mastered the techniques in this video, you will be ready
to move
on to the Damascus series (coming soon). But first learn the
basics from an American Bladesmith Society Mastersmith.
Note: This video
shows methods using a forge, a hydraulic press, and a power hammer.
