Refining and Carburizing Wrought Iron (Forge Diaries: Ep. 5)

This video shows techniques for refining wrought iron as well as carburizing the iron and how to turn it into shear steel. To round it off, I make a san-mai construction knife to show off the results that can be achieved by these techniques. Forge diaries are rough and unpolished videos that show some of the work I do at the forge. These short episodes capture various random activities including failed experiments and small tips and tricks. They allow me to publish status updates while I am working on larger projects.
