The Blacksmithing Process

Finishing

Each piece starts out as a simple piece of metal. Through the process of forging it is transformed into art. Forging consists of the metal being heated up in a very hot forge, until malleable, then it is struck precisely by the blacksmith’s hammer and shaped into its final form. It takes a skilled hand to direct the hammer blows correctly to achieve the desired result.

Once the metal is formed into the desired shape, the blacksmith will cool and harden the metal by submerging it into water or oil depending on the type of metal. This process is necessary in order to give the metal a strong structure.

After the blacksmith has created and hardened their work, they need to clean it up. Through the process of finishing, a piece will be cleaned by either grinding the piece to give it a shinny appearance or a sharp edge, oiling or waxing to give it a rustic blackened look, or by other means to get the desired outcome of the blacksmith. This method insures the metal creation turns into a stunning masterpiece.
