OK, I have some pics of my power hammer, but I must warn you, that the pics are intended to show the making of a billet and not the hammer itself. So it's kind of nasty.

Holy mackerel Lin how big a hammer is that? I'd sure like to play with one of those air hammers some day...  

Awesome blade by the way  :notworthy:

Thanks Lin,  Big Blue?  dont mean to hijack or turn the thread.

NICE Bowie, lookin fwd. to final pics.

This hammer is not the high end ones. It's ok but, no Matt, not the Big Blue. It's rated about 88 lbs. Doug.

I will probably work on the blade this weekend.

Thanks Lin, sure enjoying seeing your work in progress. Can't wait to see how you finish that one. Very cool blade. RS

Thanks Robin. I just filed the shoulders for the guard, but still have some time to spend on it before I show the finished blade. Working on several, back and forth.
