Blacksmithing - Forging a larger decorative leaf

[@mray1255]

These are the best blacksmithing videos available, no talk, no fucking stupid music, just how it’s done by a master.

[@paolociravolo3758]

i suoi video li trovo Molto Belli e Interessanti, Complimenti

[@jamesmcmillen4828]

Leaves are the bane of my life in blacksmithing! I'm getting better with them, but I've still got a long way to go. Grear work and wonderful techniques! Cutting those notches is a nice little touch of realism!

[@torbjornahman]

James McMillen Thanks!

[@philb8186]

As a career blacksmith watcher, I can tell you this guy has some of the best form with a hammer I have ever seen

[@torbjornahman]

:) Thanks

[@matthewmarting3623]

I cannot thank you enough for showing me your process. I've just done the project, took about 90 minutes for the first one and it came out like I've done hundreds. It does you great credit when your process is so refined that a hobbyist smith like me can get a similar result on the first try. Although the texturing and proportion on your leaf are much better.

[@torbjornahman]

Thank you! That's great.

alejandro roa gutierrez What is your problem?

[@MrKkdkk]

@@aikou2886 look at how small it is. The more you know...

[@garyedwards5983]

He is the Bob Ross of blacksmithing!!!! I learned soooo much from his videos!!!

[@ninktabustle]

Thankyou for this video, iam just returning to work after family life took up my time, my forge is set up and I needed a refresher in some things your film showed me stuff I had forgotten over the last ten years and gave new tips I did not know excellent I'm off now to get the fire lit!!

[@JessieJoystick]

There's something poetic about making something so delicate out of something so strong.

[@andychaffin740]

Videos like this make me say to myself, "What are you doing with your life?" Blacksmithing skills are very underrated. Great Job

[@EstoniaANTICOMMUNIST]

+andy chaffin Since we have China, we don't need nothing more!

[@allanjames2843]

Jarrod Skyta it's true..

[@tomasandersson2236]

Watching you work is very soothing. No music, no talking, just the sound of creativity and masterful hammering. =) Love your creations and videos.

[@torbjornahman]

Thanks Tomas!

[@BhamJames]

Your videos are very well made. Kudos. I especially appreciate the way you start a new section slowly but then immediately speed it up to see the metal take shape. Very informative!

[@general5104]

BEAUTIMUS! (Tennessee slang for MOST BEAUTIFUL)!!! You show great care & demonstrate great love for the metal! You are a true artist! Thank you for taking your time to do this video!

[@torbjornahman]

Lee Williams :) Thanks! Good word.

[@gettinwithit9275]

That's awesome! Just a teenager who has been self-introduced to a great hobby, can't wait to try this out!

[@TheSyko7]

Just wanted to thank you for posting this video. I've begun a project using this method. Proud to say I am very happy with the results. They may not be as detailed, but I am making several leaves and getting crazy compliments and praise.. Thank you for the idea and the knowledge

[@torbjornahman]

+Syko Sevin Great! Thanks.

[@hug0sanchez]

WOW man, so much work into something so small.... A leaf..... But you appreciate it so much more when you see all the work that goes into it.

[@Ricopolico]

Beautiful! I will view the wrought iron work I see with greater awe from now on.

[@remige2006]

An amasing video that show your skill as much as it invites us to try it...

[@TheRunereaper]

Beautiful. A fine gift for a lady. Thanks for posting.

[@jackdub75]

Truly therapeutic and your precision with a hammer would be hard to beat. It is highly impressive to watch.

[@SpiritBear12]

Very nice job. I like the graceful curve in the leaf, it really brings it out.

[@doncoyotewindshiggens7722]

I've seen leafs & Grapes made by forging. But never Morel mushrooms.... I'm gonna try that soon.. thanks for sharing the video!

[@beowulf848]

I'm an amateur blacksmith (at best) and you can color me impressed! Subscribed. It's great to watch an actual skilled smith at work instead of people just machining stuff and calling it "forging".

[@torbjornahman]

Thanks!

[@서원파-v3w]

It looks like a fallen side, so I shed some tears for some reason. Thank you.

[@damiaan7021]

how great, I recently found someone that can teach me the art and now I find this channel, this will certainly help my lack of inpiration.

[@torbjornahman]

+Damiaan Moors Great! Good luck!

[@damiaan7021]

Torbjörn Åhman thanks!

[@pricklyphlox]

My second favorite class in high school! Nice leaf!

[@joshtaschuk2153]

Nice work! I like that little bent u bar hardy hole tool for the middle formation of the leaf. Look forward to more videos and thanks for sharing.

[@KristenKaroleigh]

4:25 made me chuckle so hard, I had to rewatch it a few times.

[@torbjornahman]

Kristen Karoleigh The brush walking off the edge? ...yep it had a rough day :)

[@fistanfenkinor]

Very fine and delicate work! Bravo!

[@brentelsing4447]

That was amazing! Whenever I get a fold like that at the base of the leaf in most certainly cracks and breaks off from the stem!

[@WAGONJON]

Wow! That leaf is awesome!! I'm going to have to make me one!! Thanks for sharing this build.

[@ChazCharlie1]

I was like yeah sure I'll watch it, and let's see how much is forged and how much is done on the grind wheel... I am very pleased to see none at all! I wish more videos were like this :D

[@torbjornahman]

[@joltzkrieg]

Dang, that's a gorgeous leaf!

[@sleepingbear7182]

Tom Bombadil Thank you!

[@darksev.6468]

Torbjörn Åhman I needed to see how people worked in the forges, and your channel is a great example. This actually reminds me of the Silver Oakleaf from Ranger's Apprentice. Keep up the good work :)

[@vincentbar484]

Tom Bombadil I have two questions for you, Tom. How is Fatty Lumpkin, and has anyone else wanted across the path of a barrow wight?

[@darksev.6468]

The One Who Does Things Fatty Lumpkin's well. And yes. people sometimes pass by it, but the Barrow Wights are gone now so its safe.

[@vincentbar484]

Tom Bombadil I have a few more questions, but the most pressing one is...What are you, since you can wear the ring without anything happening?

[@VexChoccyMilk]

A few thousand more of these and you could have your own iron tree, free stock for life!

[@torbjornahman]

Slayeroffoes Hehe. Maybe I should forge a seed instead?!

[@Ensambitter]

Awesome! Keep it up!

[@lindaharper8458]

That leaf and the rose you made are absolutely beautiful. I love anything that is made tolook like leaves. Dishes, ornaments etc. I wish I could buy one of those leaves from you.Leave me a notification if you think it might be possible.
