Here you will see forged Chisel out of leaf SPRING. I found this rusty spring on the road, quite often find items for my restorations there, and decided to take it home and make a Chisel out of it, and it is big straight Chisel.
Processing: First I cut the piece needed, cleaned it of rust using an angle grinder and started to forge. I have a homemade Forge and a 180 pound Anvil. I believe that real steel should go through the fire and hammer of the master, only such steel has its energy strength and uniqueness. Its important to clean the metal from rust and possible shells before forging, as well as after forging before Hardening, this is the way to get high quality outcome.
I forged and formed a workpiece for the Chisel, and hardened in the evening to see the temperature of the metal, it's 800 ~ 830 degrees, then Tempering in the sand using my secret method. The grinding process in the video takes only a few minutes but in reality this Chisel was Hand Polished the for a 1 week. All polishing work is done by my own hands after being tempered. It is not easy to process, a lot of abrasive and Sandpaper was used to remove a certain layer of material. I used Wild Apple tree for handle, and there are several reasons for this - Strength, interesting wood texture, availability, so focused on this choice.
Brass Ferrule was made out of a broken nut, then fixed and sealed with Epoxy glue, and polished to a mirror shine. It turned out to be an Extremely durable and beautiful tool, as well as Very Sharp as a Razor. I did a little test where I show the sharpness and strength of this beautiful Chisel.
