Turning an old Hammer into an Adze by Blacksmithing

Blacksmithing work on an old hammer head to convert it into a small adze for carving out wooden bowls and such like.

In this film I have the forge running very hot to beat an old slaters hammer into a new form - this time making a small adze. At the start of the film it was going to be a bit of a toss up as to whether I was going to make a Twybill or Adze, but given the way the metal was responding, with a degree of britalness, the adze won the day. The project went very well, and at the end of the film you can see me using the Adze.
