Forging a Viking Pendant

[@torbjornahman]

That's super nice! I might try one at some point!

[@karenhanson4207]

Those look great! I'm always amazed what you are able to make out of a piece of rebar.

[@martysmith1626]

Thank you!

[@liamjoy7872]

Awesome work! Definitely gonna give it a try. Just a word of advice, pop a magnet on the body of the anvil to help with the ringing

[@igneous061]

Omg the ringing.....

[@jonb4499]

We got a pinger 😂

[@clippointbushcraft6396]

Very nice pieces of work. That ear shatterin' ring your getting from the anvil means it is good quality. To muffle the sound many blacksmiths wrap the waist with chains or stick magnets on it. I've found that securing it tight to the anvil block works best. Keep up the good work.

Beautiful work. Thanks for sharing your video.

[@martysmith1626]

Glad you liked it, and thanks for watching!

Is that a hurricane in the background? Sounds like high winds and the shed metal seems to be flopping around. Nice work!

[@daveadams4128]

I really like that, cool design

[@mikegracia1475]

Great work :) Hmmm what size rebar is this BTW?

[@gregshuffield1976]

The Viking woman ( Double Bubble ) makes knives & Hatchetts. The Viking Guy makes nipple rings. Make it make sense

Brother my hats off to you.ive been smithing for over 20 yrs never done one of these thought I'd try.lol I'm missing alot of steps.lol I got it after 1hr of beating then useing a mocked up jig.but I can say this if I ever make another one I will find a way easyer way of doing it.by making a jig.

[@elijahstraub]

Very cool!

Do you have provenance of the original artifact on which this is based? I'm no expert on Old Norse culure, but I'm CERTAIN this is not an interpretation of an Old Norse artifact.

[@martysmith1626]

No I just made it up 😁

[@richardhazell2601]

Great work dude. I've tried to make one. Not managed to get the quality on yours but I'm happy with it. Thanks for the lesson.

[@BerserkerGang2019]

really nice. i love using re-barfor small projects too=) liked and subscribed!!

[@puckbethel]

Can I ask, why did you file down the mouth before continuing to draw it out on the forge? I usually do all my filing after the piece is completely forged and cooled off. Awesome work though, and can't argue with the result!

[@toddmclain13]

Usually to remove rag so as not to forge a cold shut or wrinkle.

[@raducostineanu8576]

@Marty please tell me what is the diameter of the steel that you use to create it. Thanks

[@martysmith1626]

3/8 inch

[@МихаилШамилов-п2щ]

[@МихаилШамилов-п2щ]

[@nicholasgarland6653]

Man put a magnet, chain or mount it to a stump! That ringing is making me not finish this videi
