Forging a RR Spike Tomahawk

Published 2022-10-09
Hello everyone and welcome to the forge, In this episode, I forge a bearded Tomahawk with a twisted spike on the back from a railroad spike. These types of projects make great practice work for beginners and teach a variety of things from slitting using a chisel to drifting and material management. I appreciate you watching as always and if you would HIT that SUBSCRIBE button and RING the NOTIFICATION bell if you would. #blacksmithing #forged #makersgonnamake #bladesmithing #knifemaking

    i appreciate videos like this because for begginers, like me, getting to see how a reasonably simple project is made and using fairly accsesable materials inspires me to try new and realistic projects. these simple basic tutorial esc vids mean a lot.

    This is great, Matt. I have a box of rail spikes I've been practicing on since starting this year and I'm finally getting the hang of moving them how I want. Gonna follow this video later in the shop.

    I like the twist in the spike. The dark wood on the handle and the ruff finish on the head makes for a very rustic design. looks handmade, i like it!!
