Thor was a blacksmith too. Thor's hammer makes "thunder" and "lightning", the sound and sparks of a hammer hitting an anvil. The "mith" in blacksmith has same origin as "Mithra" and "Myth". Mi/My = Mercury (Wise god). Th = Thor (creator god). So, the "mith" means, wise creator. Thor = Jupiter (sacred metal, TIN), his son Módi = Mars (sacred metal, IRON)
Your skill is amazing! I just love to watch you forge! There is so much precision in every strike and everything you do... So much to learn from... Thank you for showing and sharing your craft! All the best!!
I'm going to try and make one of these next time i'm out forging. I wear a Mjolnir daily so it would be awesome if it was one that i made myself. Is there a particular advantage to using the Hardy hole tool at 1:50? Can I just use the edge of my anvil? Also Great video! I love the lighting you use now!
Absolutely, go for it. I got a very special Mjölner I made that I am wearing all the time. You can use the edge of your anvil but you will probably have to draw more material for the shaft of the hammer, otherwise it will be difficult to hold with tongs. But that is the only reason I am using the Hardy Hole tool. I like to be able to hold the Mjölner horizontal in line with my anvil. Thank you very much for your feedback!
I used simple tin melted in a small pot, and poured it into a plaster mold. After the operation, it became very hard and I have been wearing it for years without problems.
The word Forge comes from the name Thor ( for - ge ). Thor = Jupiter (sacred number 4) Also the words, For, Fork, Fort, Form, Forgery, Forth, Four, Fought, Thorn, Thorpe, Thought, Think, Thank, Thursday and Thunder.
Hello. Can you please tell me the dimensions of the metal sheet. I tried to make the hammer from a round bar 10 mm diameter but I see from a rectangular one it is easy.
I shouldn't watch your videos so close to midnight. You always inspire me to make something and the temptation to go fire up the forge for some late night smithing becomes unbearable.
This is a great display for young/newer people trying to get into forging!
I hope so.
It looks so easy 😂 but i know how many skill you must have to let it look so easy forging. I love it. ❤
Great to hear that you like it! Thank you
Master of art😉👍👊
Thanks!
Very simple and well done video. I was really over thinking this process in my head. Thank you for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!

Nice!
Love watching you craft metal into beautiful items, very nice 👌
Thank you very much!
Another great video. Thanks.

Perfect!
Very nice mjolnir skal
Thank you! Skål!
Nice, a bit different than the fullered and twisted type.
Thanks!🙂
This is a fun way making them
Man, can i ask what kind of tongs and round nose pliers you use??? They're beautiful!!!!
Unfortunately I don't know what brand. These are some I just picked up somewhere.
👍👍👍

Hi! For this one I used a 20x5 mm bar.
@@lufolkcrafts Thanks a lot for your answer.
@@rcostineanu you are welcome
Nice! What is the starting size of the stock? Thickness etc?
I forge these out of 10 mm round or 20x5 mm
@@lufolkcrafts thanks :) :) appreciate the reply.

Hehe, I hear you. Thank you, I'm happy you are getting inspired. Get dom sleep and take an early forge session instead 😉
