Skilled artisans at the heart of civilization since the Iron Age, blacksmiths gained the respect of their communities through the utility of their creations, whether these were weapons, farming tools, or household items. Today, the ancient art of blacksmithing is undergoing a revival. In the pages of this book, discover key blacksmithing techniques, including planishing, punching, annealing, upsetting, drawing, scrolling, tapering, and quenching. Our expert author also offers step-by-step guidance on how to handcraft seven artifacts, from making a simple metal punch to more complicated tools, like a pair of flat-bit tongs and a utility knife with carved leather handle.
