Knives

These are a few knive from last year. Originally I had started off my Bachelors degree in the direction using jewellery skills to explore knife making hence the knives. This year direction has changed slightly now I will be more focused on smithing. 






Seal ring

This is a sneak peak of the process of how I forged a seal ring. There is a question mark next in the picture because I will be exploring this process more in time to come. To find better more efficient ways of forging, and make tools to make the job easier

Tools

This is a picture of some of the tools I have forges and made to help me with forging. The tongs I forged to help me with forging the steel seal ring I was working on. The other tools were made as needed a skill that has become very apparent over this past time of the Bachelors degree
