Forging a pair of bolt tongs - A different method (2020)

Smiths can never have too many tongs! Here I show a variation to forging a pair of bolt tongs, using different tools than you usually see me use. I will use a guillotine tool made by Angele Maschinebau, Link: https://www.angele-shop.com/shop/en/f... I use a bending fork to shape the jaw of the tongs and I draw the reins out over the edge of the anvil in a different way that my usual approach. Email: [email protected] Insta: BlacksmithJoey
