I'm not bragging about these, just made them out of scrap stuff laying around the barn. Quick & dirty...

The chisels are my attempts at making a set of ornamental eye punches...

Hey, whatever works, they look alright to me.

Later when you find the right steel to make a better looking set for you, or different?...

If I didn't have the shape I needed in my tool box, I'd be reaching for one of yours....lol

Blacksmith?.....snap out of it!

Ugly tooling can do beautiful work... You will see some pretty scabbed together stuff in some masters shops..

Whatever you are, be a good one.

I have two or three eye punches and I'd love to have about a half dozen more. Makes a great detail even if it's NOT an eye.

They only remember you when you SCREW UP~!!!
