Bertram sir, you are a true “Craftsman” in so many ways, at such a young age, it’s difficult for me to imagine that you’ve Not been blessed from birth. We’re all in awe here at your expertise and perseverance. The birds songs in the background are soothing and beautiful. Well done sir!
Бертран это не ковка это просто красота. Восхищаюсь твоим мастерством. У тебя получается не инструмент, а произведение искусства. Результат просто великолепный.
Всегда интересно узнать от Мастера, что то новое. Руки умелые, такие шедевры делает, в магазине такое не купиш. Здоровья тебе и долгих лет.
Love watching the birth of a good tool. Makes me appreciate the tools I have.
No
Kala Shrma yes
Hello friends. let us be grateful to our friend who posted this video sharing knowledge. It doesn't cost anything to like and make a simple comment. It is the least we can do in gratitude for his work. thank you!
Brilliant craftsmanship; I would be so happy with myself if I had forged that!
I also really like your approach to using reclaimed materials. Turning scrap into such useful, personal items.
I love how you made tools.. No fancy power tool, that's the real blacksmith...
Four Kings I do too!
agreed
You know he’s using a power hammer right?
@@timfife7219 One that runs on muscle-power and is homemade as I see it. A real power hammer doesn't work that way. Check around 1:30 - he is using his leg to stomp a pedal that powers the hammer strike.
Tim Fife power hammer powered by his leg
Всегда потрясающие и насыщенные видео на этом канале. Восхищаюсь работой мастера, добра и счастья ему!
You, sir, are the epitome of a craftsman. With the hand strength of a vise and the fireproof skin to prove it. Well done!
You are living life my friend. It seems with how you present your videos (the best in raw, naturalistic cinematography) you are working your way towards building a log cabin. The videos & things I can learn from all that...priceless. Granted the videos you present now are gems...
It is the purest of pleasures to watch a Master Craftsman at work. I'm completely in awe of the skills you show in your videos - many thanks from the UK.
Уважение Мастеру!!! Тоже любитель ручного труда,без всяких токарных станков и электромолота, всё подручными средствами. Дай Бог тебе здоровья на долгие годы. Моё уважение Мастеру!!!
I like it that after you make a tool, you show yourself using it. It gives some context, and emphasizes that these are indeed tools and not decorations
Beautiful , marvelous !!
The footage has a remarkable quality as your adzle .
No music , no talking, just your work and the birds singing.
Perfect.
Congratulations from the mountains of Serra da Mantiqueira MG Brasil!
When an artist decides to do blacksmithing .
I can't make one single remark , this guy is fantastic.
Wow!! Bertram.. that’s a beautiful tool you made there!! And the tiring process of hand/foot hammering it to a new form.. it’s really beautiful.
Thank you for opening a window to your solitary lifestyle.
You're an artist in everything what you're doing. Simply perfect. Always enjoying your meditative videos very much, thank you.
Fascinating handcraft! Never seen anything like that before. It's really a peace of art. Beautiful!
It was enjoyable to watch you use the procession of tools that you have been making. A beautiful adze
I want to thank you. I will not be a blacksmith, though after watching you working wood with all the handtools, like a handdrill, I got myself those tools, and am now learning to work with those. It makes me less depending on electricity. I think electricity will go down in the near future, and it will be important to have the tools and the knowledge how to use those. Most people here only use the powertools, and don't even have the old tools anymore. I'm grateful! I hope you will have your drivers license soon! Much love!
@Matsumoto Outo We shall see.
@g % Not too long ago Puerto Rico was without electricity for a year or so, over a hurricane, earthquakes can cause trouble with the electric net, if it is a nuclear plant, there is a whole list of things that can happen, and so on. What I am waiting for is a big CME, for there are all kinds of issues in space. A CME can burn the transformators used for the net, and those are humongous, so not easy to replace. There are not even enough to replace them, and it takes a while to make one. There are lots of things going on. You can try Sott with the series Earthchanges, and if you want to see even more, try WSO, or any of the many other channels that are looking into things. I am not going to say more here, for if you want to know, you can find it all. Be it that nobody can say for sure what it is, and what it will bring. Have a great day!
@g % Me cavewoman, I would not know how to generate electricity, nor do I like the use of powertools. Each his/her own. I have oldfashioned skills, that may help. :) Have a beautiful day!
I really like the camera angle looking across the anvil towards the treadle hammer and of course the adze is spectacular.
Thank you Black Bear Forge. I did subscribe to your channel about a year ago and I have seen most of your videos. Love what you do.
Всех Благ Тебе!!! И Поклон Твоим Родителям!!!...Так держать...Ты из тех кто что то может и делает....Молодец!!! Дай Бог Тебе и Всем Твоим Близким Здоровья!!!
Rune Malte, that was one of a few times I have ever seen someone oil the handle before they mounted the head. Thank you, for all you share with us.
every time i watch your video i feel im watching back to the future. nice vids
Love the chain pulley system with the 30lb sledge. You sir could be sent back in time and fit in unnoticed easily.
The man is an artist, in his artisanal crafts and also as a film maker. Thank you Bertram...
That hammer stepping machine ya made is SICK too!:) Great adze!
They say he puts the hands of his enemies under that
Without any gloves! A hands of a real worker man! Respect from Belarus.
Once again, I go to sleep less dumb thanks to your videos. Not only did I learn what an adze is, but I also have an idea of how to make it. Thank you :)
Always enjoyable to watch you work. Your workshop is much more peaceful than mine. I’ll need to change that. Thanks for the inspiration.
Sir you are a real blacksmith
With a piece of steel and a bunch of coal you have created a real masterpiece
Love these new videos you put together ...very relaxing to see something being made with old school skills ☺☺☺☺ well done brother☺☺☺
I can't help but watch you make this beautiful adze, plus the tool you use to make the handle.
Restores ones faith in people watching these videos. Craftsman artist of the highest order. Many thanks.
Grande Rune !!!Vedo i tuoi video con la mia bimba,,,,,il dito su lo vuol mettere sempre lei.Quest'estate andiamo a fare campeggio!!!! Sei un mito per noi! I tuoi modi, i tuoi gusti, il tuo stile e' davvero inarrivabile!!! Ciao dall'abruzzo (italia)
C'est toujours un grand plaisir de te voir réaliser de magnifiques outils, merci à toi. 👍🏼
Beautiful work. For us in the Czech Republic, this ax is called Teslice. I recently made a wooden trough with her.
That is some fine blacksmithing . Great show!
Du grand art ! Merci du partage... Bertram !
Great art! Thank you for sharing... Bertram!
I love your videos. They make me think about how my grandfather used to work
That step hammer is the most badass thing I've seen in a while
Well done bro, you are a true master of your craft-greetings to you from far away Russia
I like how you use all YOUR tools. So cool.
There’s something so relaxing about your smithing videos. Hej fra Utah!!!
Looks really great. I've never seen the triple wedge technique for hanging an axe/adze. Awesome idea. Will try it next time.
I don't know what it is but i can seriously watch this for days . It's almost therapeutic with just the sounds hammers clanging and the sound of ping of the anvil.
beautiful detail of the adze, and the simple strait grain of the ash is a perfect match for this wonderful tool. I am a begining to learn the craft of smithing, but very far form your skill level. plus your carving skills with your axes while holding the peice with your hand is both refreshing and encouraging. be safe sir. thanks fred
It's a real pleasure to follow you my Rune!! But moste of all your skills as a blacksmith. Your work is so beautiful done, only grinding the very necessary. You using the Hammersmith teknik to a nother level, you are very skilled...... 👌🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
An excellent video. Fine craftsmanship and a first-rate adze. Thank you!
This is an excellent video of your talents, very good!!
This is what I love about blacksmithing, if you need a tool, make a tool. Making things to sell is nice and all, but there is a certain satisfaction from using tools that you have made for yourself.
Well after watching this video,I’m guessing you made your axe! Another quality video! Very nice work!!
Nice work. I love your perfection and another one is no power tools and traditional hand made tool also nice to see and mind relaxing one,thanks for uploading
always a pleasure to watch you practice your craft!
Genial!!!! Ich liebe es Handwerkern zuzusehen, dass sind für mich wahre Künstler!! Gruss aus der Schweiz
Fantastic! loved every bit of it. Your so calm when working its relaxing to watch. Thanks for making a video to show others.
Absolutely beautiful tool and expertly made!
I love your videos! I look forward to when your new videos appear! Especially liked the ax- 10:40! With best regards!^^
Great, as usual! Love your skills and your working places!
Absolutely superb craftsmanship!
You have such an awesome shop very cool tools and you use them so effectively very skilled at whatever you do nice work!
with this tool you can make wood canoe!! awesome job mate!
Well you might be able to make a canoe..I am afraid a tool would not help me a lot:)
For hollowing out the stems and gar boards of a faering this will come in handy.
@@nicolaihel9165 You taught me a new kind of boat. Thanks my guy, very cool.

The utter satisfaction that one feels when he can fashion metal & wood into a tool to create object of use, utility and beauty must settle a divinity in oneself.
I love your Videos. What a nice work. I am looking forward to your next video.
That hammer jig is pure innovation... Loved it
Te felicito por todas tus creaciones, estoy realmente asombrado, sos un GENIO. Sigo mirando tus vídeos. Saludos desde La Patagonia, Argentina. Cristian Bollert
I congratulate you on all your creations, I am really amazed, you are a GENIUS. I keep watching your videos. Greetings from Patagonia, Argentina. Cristian Bollert
Great work. Great admiration. Great videos. Greetings from the Czech Republic.
Absolutely Amazing, great workmanship.
As usual amazing video! Greetings from Poland and Bulgaria!!!
Truely inspired now, I can only hope mine will be half as good as yours. Excellent craftsmanship sir I commend you.
Always impressed with what you can do with raw metal 👍
I am a Machinist, so I work with a lot of computer-controlled Manufacturing. Knowing how much time I put into making even a simple part, especially on manual machines, only increases the respect I have for people who work entirely with hand tools. I would love to do some blacksmithing once I get my own house, but I might be pretty busy by that point ;)
Next up, we'll see you paddling around in a tree trunk you hollowed out with that adze and some embers :D Great work, amazing to watch the dedication and skill you have acquired in such a relatively short period of time :P
Very good work, I always enjoy your videos! Great blacksmithing!
Amazing work. This maker is a treasure.
Excellent craftsmanship and style
Руки у тебя золотые. Дар Божий просто. Удачи тебе и всех благ...👍👍👍
It's a TWO FER! Not only do you make a cool looking tool but you get your exercise doing it!
Wonderful job!!! Congratulations man!!
You are a master smith, Bertram. Thanks!
Amazing really. You can make your own tools for all you need. Very good job folk!
Bro you are the best. Look forward to bushcraft video 😊 regards 😊
Your skill is truly awesome you must be a master at your craft
Oh man this was so good! hope to make an adze soon too. Handle maybe a bit wide, but would have to hold it to be sure. Love to see more projects like this! Keep it up!
Great tool you made, congratulations
A true genius the grain in the handle just perfect.
That was amazing to watch Thanks for sharing this with us
Wow ! Amazing !! What a dexterity!
I love the ways ,your way of forging steal .
Another brilliant video and tool making demonstration Bertram!
