These look like a great design. Between these three tools you have most of the functions of a much larger anvil with a fraction of the cost and increased portability.
When the EMP hits, he will be the literally Cutting Edge Elite Technology. I am designing my forge now, and seeing this made me rethink my power hammer.
Rune, thank you for keeping your videos so clean without having ads running in the middle, it makes them feel more personal! Looking forward to your next adventure that you bring us on. AisforRebel Colorado, USA
I like the simplicity of this. It seems like it would work just as well as a big standard anvil would for most tasks. The wedge anvil there would be perfectly sufficient for forging swords and axes and other tools, the long horn anvil would be great for detailing, and the smaller square anvil with a small horn would suffice for smaller detail work such as torcs, armbands, rings, etc. This seems a perfectly servicable setup when paired with a basic wood table for filework and a grinding station.
I love how you finish the 3rd anvil by using the first two, also how you carve the sheath for your knives using the blade you've just forged. INTEGRITY!
It's called a Treadle hammer and they are very simple to make, I made one back when I was 12 years old and its worked really well for about twenty years.
These are so cool, the perfect thing for taking on Viking expeditions to repair weapons and tools and make necessary new ones. I was thinking for years what would a person without resources use for an anvil? If nothing else a large smooth rock, but if you’re in a position to improvise then using a large splitting axe or wedge, a hammer partially buried in the ground or in a stump or your camp axe deeply embedded into a stump or log will do.
Truly amazing work. I was so inspired by these desigs and the viking history that i decided to base a nation on it for a fantasy book and used these anvils as a concept of using little metal but making amazing tools and weapons.
I m french. My english is not really good. But i realy love your vodeo ,the time and the work for do a video like this. A big thanks for allllllllll the technique you give to make anvils knifs.................. you are an exemple for me!!!! ✌💪💪💪💪💪
Can't stop to adore your creativity. I thought the tongs were brilliant - but damn, that "power"-hammer! Pure genius. Thank you for a great amount of great ideas. Keep up the good work,mate! \o/
Ummmm-yes his videos are great but the "power hammer" you admire has been around for a couple of hundred years . Look up Treadle hammers and Oliver Hammers. You'll find an amazing assortment of plans to fit any budget..
@ 5:08 to those non-blacksmiths, this technique of working the material back into itself, making it fatter, is called "upsetting." For plenty of reasons, this isn't very easy to do. Needing to keep the piece aligned, constantly squaring the face again to continue the upset, selective heating, there's a lot going on And to get from that bar of leaf spring at 5:00 to the (mostly) final size at 5:45 would have taken a lot... and I mean a LOT of time and effort to upset that much material. Even to non-blacksmiths, this man's skill is very apparent, but to those of us who are more familiar with what he's doing, it's outstanding.
Obrigado pelo vídeo. Realmente, detalha o processo de fabricação das bigornas!!! Saudações do Brasil... Thanks for the video. Actually, it details the manufacturing process of the anvils !!! Greetings from Brazil...
I’m a history major although I haven’t been active in the last few years. I wondered what the Cornish would have called Vikings because I knew there was at least raiding that far west. I found a reference to brief Cornish/Briton cooperation with the Vikings before Cnut took the Southwest in 1017ish.
Could you please do a video about your peddle driven power hammer. I would love to know how you built that and the engineering behind it. Because it looks awesome.
Very nice work. It always amazes the things smiths were able to make on those small anvils. Im looking forward to seeing what you produce on them. it would be interesting to see a large chopper or tomahawk/ small axe made on them. Any plans to put together a traveling tool chest? Something along the minimalist forge set ups thought to be used by the vikings? At least from what I've seen of some the viking archeological displays. You're outdoor forge set up is a very good example of what I've seen of their forging set ups. Thanks for sharing!
Big anvils are nice for the real estate they offer, but in reality, you're only ever using a small portion of them at any one time. You can make an anvil out of a sledge hammer and do just fine with small to medium projects, heck, with enough ingenuity, you can upscale to some big projects too.
@Joe Gregory Thanks. Yes need to make at least one axe on those small anvils... I will probably not make a wood cheat just because it's a bit heavy to bing along around in nature alone compared to just a backpack of some kind - but yes I will make a very small mobile blacksmith shop for future bushcraft trips and one or two of these small anvils will be part of the gear.
@@trashman49057 We have a lot of that here as well... But I don't participant. I have no use of a cheat tool storage... At least not for the moment. If I do at some point will I make one.
Can you maybe show and explain how to temper steel in fire? I am a beginner and cant find any information about that in the internet. Just about how to do this in oven, but i dont want to do that. I want to do it “medival like“ like my forge, without using modern things.
I am not planing to do that... because a lot of other youtubers have great videos about the topic already. Just search "tempering steel". The only thing you need to get explained/understand is "temper colors". When you understand that can you easy figure out what I and others is doing just by seeing a few seconds of video footage with no explanation to it other than the pictures. "DF - in the shop" is one out of many old timers how have a lot of "blacksmithing for beginners" videos. Just spend a few days researching - a lot of fantastic information already out there.
В этом мастере нравится то, что он старается работать, максимально Не используя современные электрические инструменты. Все приводится мускульной силой-от этого изделия получаются Максимально с душой! При введении в процесс современных инструментов - на выходе бездушная болванка сразу.. Молодец! Хочу так тоже уметь делать!
no drama, just audio visual, n i always back to enjoy it.. thanks man
its like u learn from him too dude, gj btw :D
Suruh buat keris bang
Wakakak abangnya harus semedi di indo dulu kalo itu

You are the "Primitive Technology" of blacksmithing channels :)

I can’t stop watching this video! Love love love! Amazing craftsman!
Why can I not double like?! This is ingenious and absolutely wonderful for a mobile blacksmith! Something that Vikings would've loved!
Thank you!
Well, they did love them, 'cause they did have them, though theirs were made from bloomery iron and possibly had welded faces of carbon steel.
The best You-Tube channels are about the skills of the presenter not the personality. Thank you for keeping it that way.
I love how you finish the 3rd anvil by using the first two, also how you carve the sheath for your knives using the blade you've just forged. INTEGRITY!
This is the best blacksmithing youtuber to watch.
that "power hammer in the beginning was amazing i would love to see an assembly video of how you did that
me too
Check the description of video
Its called a treadle hammer, lots of good videos around on making them.
It's called a Treadle hammer and they are very simple to make, I made one back when I was 12 years old and its worked really well for about twenty years.
yes please
I absolutely love all your videos! I aspire to be at your blacksmithing level! Thanks for the videos!

This guy REALLY MADE A POWER HAMMER OMG NO CHANCE 🤯🤯🤯🤯
Another awesome video Rune Malte Bertram-Nielsen. Got to say I like seeing a treadle hammer in use.
Thanks for being illustrative. A picture says a thousand words, but a video says a million.
Mint! Love the simple sledge hammer mechanism too. Thanks for the video.
Wonderful video. I can watch it over and over again. Thank you for such quality content.

It is no small thing to say that the picture quality of the videos on this channel is second to none.
This is my new favorite channel. Thank you for doing what you do.
Your content is awesome, man! Those viking anvils were very beautiful and well crafted!!
No touch mark? Nice work. I appreciate your skill set in smithing and demonstrating earlier times.
Thanks. No - I never touch mark any thing.
Really enjoyed watching this. It's the first video of yours I have seen but won't be the last!
Great hot file work! Love the end product, these will definitely come in handy on your camping excursions.
Your videos are literally speechless. I love your works!
all three anvils are stunning work
You are an amazing person. This video was really fun to watch. Thanks for taking us a long

Just goes to show you don't need fancy equipment to get work done. A very good video.
Very nice job. The video shoves that you don't really need a fancy big anvil. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The things you can do in that little outdoor shop never cease to amaze me
Nice video again Rune. Hard work as usual. Greetings from Madrid
Me agrada saber que no soy el único Español! 💪🇪🇸

love your bushcraft & smithing. cant wait for another bushcraft video.
I realy love the blacksmithing videos! Lot of inspiration!
Great Job!
One of those videos after which you want to start doing the same almost instantly :D
Could you please do a video about your peddle driven power hammer. I would love to know how you built that and the engineering behind it. Because it looks awesome.
You are a true craftsman Sir.
Great video, you put a lot of effort into your work, and it shows. Well done

Sweet solo there at the end. 🤘
Dude that hammer tho! Awesome! Manual power!
Great videos...would love to see an extended bushcraft trip with canoe and portaging through Scandinavia.
Thanks. I will for sure do some longer trips with canoe - a lot of canoeing in especially north Scandinavia.
I like your stump anvils set up!
Welp, looks like I have some more projects to do.
Great videos, keep up the great work!
Simple but functional, it's great
Très belle vidéo tout en simplicité sans blabla beau travail
Love the sound of that treadle hammer! Great video as always!

I was thinking of the chest as a traveling item to use if you went to any of the Renaissance fairs or hammer in meetings. If you have those over there

Excellent historical work! The oil quench container must be replaced.
An amazing life, those Vikings!!
It is great to see your videos. It gives me piece of mind.
Peace*

Thank you very much for your answer. Now I know how to do it after researching the last days. Tryed it yesterday and it worked. Thank you very much.
Fantastic work being achieved!
Now that's a power Hammer 🔨
Love your channel! Hugs form Italy :)
Дорожный комплект наковален.Супер работа👍👍👍👍👍
Most satisfying video ive seen all day, thx!
Отличная работа. Очередной раз убеждаюсь, что для большинства видов ковки массивная наковальня не нужна.
Great work as always
All around excellent and well done projects.
I am impressed at how the tree stump was technically the original swage block
Beautiful Hand job ! Thank !
Dude ur actually sick this is so cool keep it up
I like watching you at work
Great job, a hug from Brazil.
I love it, exelente, congratulation!!!!
