The Gransfors Swedish Blacksmithing Book (322-E) is the perfect guide for anyone interested in learning this timeless craft. Uncover the secrets and skills within blacksmithing’s rich history and be enchanted by the magical aura of this ancient art. Explore how this unique knowledge has been significant to the growth and prosperity of society, from the forging of weapons and tools to the making of livelihoods.

In the last decade, Swedish Blacksmithing has found its place as the standard handbook for blacksmithing in all of Scandinavia and even in Germany, and has now been translated into English. In this book you will find descriptions, with complete technical instructions, of many whole processes; from how to build up a simple forge to the necessary tools and the basics of blacksmithing. In unique chapters, the art of forging an axe is taught and the secrets of damask are explained. Typical Swedish items for everyday use and knife-making are also covered. All of this is done using dialogue between a contemporary blacksmith and his eager apprentice. Over four hundred drawings and photographs complete the experience and illustrate the contexts where words can fall short.
