Start forging TODAY in your own backyard - no special tools required

This video takes you step by step through the process of building a backyard forge TODAY--with no special tools--and making a knife with your new forge. The whole process should take about 4 hours, start to finish, and will cost only a few dollars for most people.

Have you ever wanted to forge metal, but couldn't figure out how or where to start. Look no further, this video is for you. I'll walk you through it and explain everything you need to know along the way. I'll give you alternative ways to do each of the things I show you, just in case you don't have some of the tools or materials I have. For example, I used old loos bricks to build up a little forge in my yard, but you could used stones or just dig a small trench with a shovel.

At the end, you'll have not only built a forge with common tools, buy you'll also be the proud owner of rebar knife you forged yourself! Oh, and if you want some GREAT knife sharpening tips check out OUTDOORS55...
