Hey thanks Walter. I've recently dug out and old smithing magician I had. Using some junk coil and leaf spring to form the dies, It's super useful. Thanks for the info.

Thank you for sharing. Still a baby with blacksmithing and also just recently started my KZbin channel. Thanks for all the content, tips and info you always give.

I make my dies from mild steel too - the cost for H13 or even 4140 was more than I am willing to consider as an amateur blade maker. I did make mine to be usable along the blade axis or across the axis.

The 45 degree butcher dies are useful for many things! Mine are also A36 steel, and I just regrind them as needed as you suggest. Thanks!

An embossed pattern on the tool could make repetitive patterns on the material a snap. Cool video with lots of potential applications.

Dear Walter, I just found your Forging Japanese dvd set online. I've had a love for Japanese swords since I was a kid. However my forge is off-grid and uses charcoal and no power tools. I was wondering if I would still be able to follow your instructions with that setup. I'm new to blacksmithing and have a hard time finding instructors that teach without power tools. J

I have always thought hard facing might help with durability and be a cost effective solution to hardy tools and dies. Might make for a good video.

I guess making the Guillotine is a little more difficult without a Mill.
