Description

The hammer is, along with the anvil, the most iconic of the blacksmith’s tools. Forging an anvil is a bit much, so in this class we’ll stick to hammer smithing. Over four classes, students will learn the basics of striking (teamwork with a sledgehammer) and forge their hammers and hammer eye punches through the power of friendship. Students will grind, harden, temper, and handle their hammers for use as they continue on their smithing journey.

This course is open to intermediate and advanced blacksmithing students who have knowledge of basic tapering, forging tapers in round bar, simple heat treatment and hole punching.
