Black Beard Projects first off great video as usual. I was amazed at how you colored the steel. Also what’s the use for a dog head vs a traditional style?

[@MuhammadDaudkhanTV100]

Good, ❤️💯🌹👌👍

[@paulholmes128]

Why dog head hammer?? Why not my way on japanese hammer its just cause it scares me that people still eat our k9 friends and they bstards mite use something like that to get the food prepared 😠nice work thoe my friend 👍

[@hammer326]

Love that you do this, many such channels don't. As a suggestion, check out primitive technology's approach if unfamiliar: He also never speaks in his videos and uses the captions feature to describe what he's doing and when. Can be toggled of course and if on is right in the video so people can see it when fullscreen or otherwise watching rather than having to go to the description. Thanks regardless, LOVED this video!!!!

[@forrestwillie444]

You all prolly dont care but does anyone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid lost my login password. I appreciate any help you can offer me!

[@douglasfathers4848]

I really enjoy watching videos when tools are made to make the main tool , you do good work thanks for sharing .

[@JoelCreates]

Meticulously crafted, love the color you achieved with the heat transfer

[@NerdInventor]

What a beauty! I cheered when you finally made it through the material! Drifting that monster is no easy task!❤

[@BlackBeardProjects]

Ahah! Thanks brother!! We did as well, punching was no joke! But also rewarding :)

[@crystalsoulslayer]

Gorgeous! That tempering technique is awesome, never seen that before. Oxidation colors are so cool.

[@ericstoever9577]

Congratulations on your first hammer! I enjoyed the process, especially the hot drift tempering. Thank you, as always!

[@TheRedhawke]

Very nice sir, I especially like the tempering of the back of the hammer into a beautiful blue. Should last you a lifetime.

What I love most is the simple handle. Makes it look so authentic.

[@cutepoint9878]

this is relaxing

[@billsargent3407]

Wow, wonderfully done! My wrist just throbs at the amount of torque using one of those must have required...

[@pawz007]

Crazy to watch the quenching oil level rise from expansion as it heats up.

[@KG-yn9qi]

That's is some good steel. Air Hammer bits. Are design to take shock loading and abuse. Good choice in material.

[@craymosstheater3999]

Saw you using this hammer to make something so had to go back and watch you make the hammer, lol..

[@FutopiaAD]

Thank you for the detailed time-stamp in your videos and for sharing your skills. It's incredibly helpful.

[@notnardwuar4696]

The amount of time you spent just making tools to forge the hammer. Very impressive. Dedication.

[@evelynbagnasco7293]

I like the shades you got with the tempering. Beautiful

[@johnmcclain3887]

That is a beautiful piece of work, I hope to make one very much the same soon, I like the shape and balance from the look of it. Thanks for showing it.

[@charlesseymour1482]

Great hammer. One of a kind piece of working art.

[@mncomichunter4195]

Every video, I'm always saying what is this guy making? Then it's a hammer, that's awesome.

[@tmaul]

That was great work. One of my friends said that it was not great so I told him he was wrong as it was great! Great hammer!

[@eddierodriguez419]

Omg just watching u shave down the wood handle with that little thing I don't know what it's called but man ouch Good video

[@KageStelhman]

Nice touch keeping the tempering colors ^.^, if you want to keep the temper on it the way it is, you could dip the hammer's striking surface(s) in water to keep them cool during prolonged use... I'm pretty sure that you already know that though. :)

[@stevenjennings8347]

ive got a piece of metal exactly like that, it is S 5. i am still trying to figure out what to do with it

[@Syberz]

Dude, you need to secure that anvil to the shop floor, seeing it bounce around while you're hammering made me uncomfortable! As always though, it's a pleasure to what you work, the color on that hammer is so beautiful.

[@BlackBeardProjects]

Thanks a lot!!! I know but I can't, there are tiles on the frool. I can't mess those up :')

[@mariobelmar5581]

hello i looked the process but didn't understood when and how did you make the hammer being like blue?
