Incredible forging video - Retógenes - 10-18-2009
And this guys are still young. It looks like in some years, they might become amazing smiths...

So, what do the experts in the forum think?

Well, I'm not an expert, but I think he's already an amazing smith! If he were to stick with historical pieces, WOW. But there's a lot more money in making fantasy stuff. I'm jealous of his SHOP! Not just a gas forge but that fabulous squisher-hammer-thingy--never seen anything like that! Talented young man.
Thanks for posting that!
Matthew

Yes, a very nice shop.

Indeed a very interesting video. Full of craftsmanship. Would be great if I ever can try to do such a job.

I'm speechless...
hock: This guy is so good than even the video itself is a piece of art!

Forging swords isn't as difficult as most might think- it looks mystical, but is just a matter of holding the metal at the right angle and directing the blows at a specific spot- plus grinding does a great deal of 'fixing' LOL Not to downplay the artistry of course
Re: Incredible forging video - A_Volpe - 10-30-2009
Wow! Thanks for posting these
Both videos are a lot of fun to watch, and great the 2nd video had "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" for a soundtrack, too
I'm really glad to see young people get hooked into doing this stuff, and what a talent, too!
Re: Incredible forging video - Gaius Julius Caesar - 10-31-2009
Just watched the second video, that guy is talented. Like the music and the humour!
