Bladesmithing is the art of making
knives, swords, daggers and other blades using a forge, hammer, anvil,
and other smithing tools. Bladesmiths employ a variety of metalworking
techniques similar to those used by blacksmiths, as well as woodworking
for knife and sword handles, and often leatherworking for sheaths.
Bladesmithing is an art that is
thousands of years old and found in cultures as diverse as China, Japan,
India, Germany, Korea, the Middle East, and the British Isles. As with
any art shrouded in history, there are myths and misconceptions about
the process. While traditionally bladesmithing referred to the
manufacture of any blade by any means, the majority of contemporary
craftsmen referred to as bladesmiths are those who primarily manufacture
blades by means of using a forge to shape the blade as opposed to
knifemakers who form blades by use of the stock removal method, although
there is some overlap between both crafts.
This library on DVD-ROM is a great
reference for beginners and experts alike. We include titles to
help the bladesmith hone his craft, as well as offer over 2,000 knife
designs, images, and sketches.
