Today I received the hammer I had on order with Kenon Rain. What a thing of beauty. Just under 2.5lbs. It is a pleasure to use... Thanks brother!

I was so impressed that it inspired me to make my own! I forged this out of an old ball peen. This little guy is just what I need to work my bevels...

I'm getting another hammer from Sam Salvati at Blade... wonder what that'll inspire me to make?

Nice forging on your's. Turning a ball pein into that shows just what you can do with hot steel.
 
Rick, there's something wrong with you. I'm not qualified to put a fine point on it... but yeah....

Nice thumpers, regardless :D
 
I get the hammer part, but where is the sausage..............?:confused:

Sometimes Rick, I think "you just ain't right" Then I read another of your posts and I know "you just ain't right" , but you do fit right in with the rest of us in this crowd!!!!!!!!:eek::):p:D:D:D And I like your sense of humor kind of reminds me of someone else on this forum. I wont name any names, Will! :foot::D:D:D

I do like the hammers. Did you hand forge the one you made from the ball peen or was it done on a power hammer?
 
It was a 3lb ball peen.... and yes I hammered it down by hand, then cut off the ball. I do not have a power hammer.......... yet.

The "Hammer Sausage" title came from my odd sense of humour. I often embarrass my wife(go figure) in public. Whenever we eat breakfast at a restaurant, more often than not the server asks if I would like bacon, ham or sausage. Before my wife has a chance to shut me down I immediately respond, "Hammer sausage?... oooooh that sounds good... I'll have the hammer sausage!". .... ha!.... I kill me. You should hear the way I order steak!(Depending on whether the server is male or female, that is.)

That's awesome. I'm gonna have to use that (with permission of course)
 
Now that's toooooooo funny Rick!!!:D:D:D

I don't care what evrybody says, I like you anyway!:eek::D:D

That was a lot hammering to make that head by hand! Great work Rick!
 
Rick, I like the long sharp rectangular face on yours,... similar to some of the ones I use.

Tai, you should know, much of that design was inpired from your videos.

You guys will be reading about a lot of things I got out of Tai's videos soon enough. I finally got done watching them for the 6th time!;):thumbup:
