Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship as always! I really hope I can buy one of your hammers someday when I have the time and money to set up my forge again. They look like an absolute pleasure to use. As a kid, my dad always told me the best way to enter a craft is to buy good tools that make you crave using them. When he decided to learn to play the guitar at 16, he spent all the money he had saved up for a car to buy a Martin Dreadnought. It's been 50 years and he still plays that guitar everyday without fail. Wherever he goes, his Martin goes, and that guitar has been at his side as he has traveled all over the US and the world. Whichever craft you pursue, it has to become an addiction - the thing you do to procrastinate other things.
