So, here are the knifemaker's aunt's metalworking projects from today. She's going to divide up the metal into 4 projects: the Kale Nail board, a shop hanging board, the scarf broach, and the big hook that will go home for the shed. The large hook and scarf broach was brushed with a brass brush which gave them a subdued glow of a golden color.
Everything was forged in one long day of hammering. Of course, there are things auntie would do differently when she does this again (oops! did she say she'd do this again?!) but for now she's going to work with what she has. Hindsight is always clearer than foresight!
