I pride myself on my economy of motion when I forge, but this has humbled me and made me look to where I might improve my technique. Compared to this gentleman I'm but a babe in the woods.

Thanks for sharing Sam!

wow..that was amazing. I have seen some good forgers but to see how quickly he completed a blade was amazing. Man..

 

[Don McNeil]

That is kind of what it is like watching Tai Goo with a hammer in his hand.

What a treat to watch!
Talk about economy of motion!
Very obvious that he has had 70 plus years of experience forging.
Thanks for sharing.

God Bless

You would hope that he was efficient by now when you think about how many blades he must have made.
