You can avoid some of the "fish lipping" by strarting out with a blunt taper before drawing out the longer taper.

This is correct. I use this method all the time, and it works perfectly for bladesmithing as well.

Great stuff. I appreciate you technical details in your descriptions. Very clean speaking. I appreciate the preliminary discussion of the material properties with martensite for annealing. I think this is the first time of heard it discussed in relation to annealing. I'm a beginner and I've never heard any details about sneaking other than hear it up and slowly cool. I wasn't aware the target was to just surpass the critical temperature. Thanks for the great content

There are two types of annealing actually. Critical (which I describe here) and non-critical annealing (which does not take the steel as hot, but has a similar effect)

thanks for the video - your discussion of tempering was helpful. minor bug: during the forging discussion you repeatedly referred to hexagonal when you probably meant octagonal
@rockingeforge5 күн бұрын
Yes, I for sure meant octagonal. 😅 Oops

IMO the best thing you can do for your channel is to properly silence that anvil. It sounds horrible. A strong magnet under the heel and horn, and then put some 100% silicone between the anvil the whatever it is mounted on. Headphone users will skip your videos immediately until the anvil is quieted.

Yeah, even just taking like 10 dB or five even off of it in editing would make a huge difference

I watched one of his videos no anvil noise pay attention to editing I can't handle the noise otherwise great
