A day of Blacksmithing......

[Stabber]

At Indian George's with Wayne Coe. Wayne did a demonstration on making the KnifeDog knife. After he finished I borrowed his Punches and vise grips and gave it a try. Not to bad and it works!! I call Him "Ghetto Dog"
Then Stabber Jr and I made some Cable damascus. I also made a Billet using Aldo's 1084 and some 15n20, Then a billet of 1084 + L6 banding iron.




Look!! It works!!!

Now you have your beer openers, I need to order 5000 nails.

In colonial America, blacksmiths made items for every facet of life, including latches, locks, nails, plow blades, hoes, pots and kettles.

A lot of tough work.

Thanks for the pictures!
