Forging a sword from scratch 〞 no not the film with Brendan fring. Titanium is a wonderful material that's ideal for crafting arms, armor, and even furniture. But if you're looking to forge a sword yourself and don't know where to start (I'd always recommend learning how) then read on
The process is fairly simple but requires several steps, including grinding down the blade and shaping it into its final form. First, you'll need a good grinder with multiple grits on it. Depending on what type of blade you want to make, you may also need other tools like files and sandpaper
You'll need some type of anvil too 〞 something that can withstand being hit with a hammer (and maybe even get broken). A vice or vise would work fine here too 〞 just be sure that it's strong enough to support your blade while being hammered on by your hammer
Once you've got all your tools ready, it's time for action! Hold up the blade in front of you so that it's perpendicular to the ground and place it between two pieces of wood or metal.
