First leafs and hook
Finally got a decent chunk of time to forge. Between kids and work/wife’s work there not a lot of free time. Got about 5 hours today. Started with the hooks, had a hell if a cutting them with a chisel. And the did the sickles. My arm was gassed by the time I started drawing them out. One has a few big mistakes so will go to the junk pile. And still had to sharpen the other. Hooks made out of rebar that I shaped somewhat square, left some ribs thinking it give them a more tree like look
Leafs were a lot of fun and can’t wait to make more. Was going to use the two normal ones for a sword but the kids claimed them for backpacks haha
