I kinda wonder if these two are really blacksmiths, the striker is swinging a roundhouse with the sledge.....

Practice makes perfect 😉
Swing a sledge hammer every day for a few years and it will be like an extra limb.

There is a Statue in Helsinki, Finland, of 3 blacksmiths working an anvil. Not with little twinky hammers, probably 15-20 Lbs. hammers. One Blacksmith, 2 Strikers, nothing hidden or covered, except for the anvil face which is probably covered with old bird. I have a picture, but it is hiding. The statue isn't that big, it is only about 15-20 feet high. It is on one of the main streets going toward the train station.
As long as we are above our shoes, We know where we are.:happy:

Read a book about the mande (african)blacksmith's. they would forge amulets for ceremonies and to carry around in your little pouch. it cost more if they forged them naked under the full moon.

Even with the ''swastika'' border in the stone ,I doubt the Fuhrer would have approved...But, he never was in Frisco........:devil:
