@groombridge34 No shit you use your wrist, elbow and shoulder all blacksmiths do. I can tell by your post you know nothing about the forging principals taught by Hofi. I am not going to waste my time explaining either. I have already wasted more than you are worth on you.
@firecop64 You shouldn't use your wrist as this will cause carpal tunnel. However, a lot of them do use their wrist because they don't know. But using your wrist will definitely cause damage. And if you know so much about blacksmithing and maybe you are a blacksmith, then at least behave like a nice tradesman you are supposed to be and share the knowlegde with a nice hand shake and not with a fist or swear.
@heyyou910 Some smiths I know think hofi took alot of his ideas and "forging systems" lol from haberman. I never met either so my opinion is not valid. As far as Uri's way of forging with his shoulder wrist and elbow, and tapering handle of hammer so you don't have hold it too tight, i've been doing it for 7 years, before i even knew who he was... simple it was more economical for my joints and allowed me to swing harder with minimal effort...

@heyyou910 No fuck you, you little puke. I bet you wish you were a blacksmith. Hofi has forgotten more about smithing than you will ever know.

Any video that ends in drinking a beer is a good tutorial on blacksmithing. :-)
