NORDIC HAMMER Rebuild
I rebuild an $8 cheap Nordic hammer and give it some awesome viking modifications.
ABOUT THE NORDIC HAMMER
I bought this hammer in the local tool store for 8$. The hammer had originally a really ugly look with a red plastic handle and some very bad metal finish.
ABOUT THE HAMMER REBUILD
I started by removing the cheap plastic hammer handle. After this I annealed the hammer head in my gas oven by heating it to over 800 degrees Celsius and slowly let it cool down. Then I grinded some way cooler angles on the hammer to make it look more Nordic. I also welded/filled up a deep stamp the producer had done in the metal and did some improvements on the metal finish, so it looks way more cool.
I hardened the hammerhead again and did a quick cleaning job after the heating process.
I gave it a nice polish on my flip table bench polisher machine and did some really cool laser Nordic Viking engravings on the side of the hammer head. I re-used an old hammer handle for this project and decorated it with a little metal piece with a Nordic viking rune on. I also burned the wooden handle with a blowtorch to give it more character. And finally I gave the handle some Nordic teak oil.
I am really satisfied with this hammer rebuild. I think that this came out Awesome and the runes and viking engravings really gives it that Nordic touch!

There was a time when tools were crafted by hand and the artistry of the maker was a way to show the pride he took in his work. You are a true living example of that ethos. Stay well my friend.
thank you so much David for your kind words :)
This was a true class of art, design and tradition. Impressive the transformation of a common hammer into a collector's item. I bet the manufacturer doesn't want any more boring hammers. I love Nordic symbolism, I have tattoos. A pleasure to see your videos again and hear from you. Thank you!!
Thanks Alex... I always appreciate your kind words 👌👍💗 have a wonderful weekend, cheers
My inner Viking cannot cope with this! Awesome!
Increíble! Macnifico!

A common plastic handle sledgehammer bought in a common tool store, upgraded to a fine work of art. You certainly know the trade Martin. Always a step beyond. Thank you so much for sharing your talent!!! Bravo maestro!!!🇦🇷
You are incredible! You imagination and craftmanship is second to none! I love your videos, I find them meditating.
Wow, thank you!
They say a picture says a thousand words, but your videos with no words, pure awesomeness.
Wow, thank you!
Друг, несмотря на это не лёгкое время, твои видео помогают забыться и отвлечься. Спасибо за творчество мистер золотые руки👍👍👍👍😊😊😊
Yes. Help & blessings, prayerfully, to all.🙏👀👍
thank you for your comment and yes we hope for better times soon
I'm really not one for watching restoration videos. But I have to say, once I saw one of your videos I went back watch them all, one after the other. I am truly amazed at your work and this is just another prime example of why I am glued to the screen watching your every restoration. ❤❤
Wauw... Thank you so much Tanya ❤️ i really appreciate your kind words 👍 cheers from Sweden 😉
Woke up early this morning, watched this while drinking coffee in the dark. Perfect! As is the hammer!
Thanks for watching and for your kind words I really appreciate it 👍🏻 :)
Thank you , Martin . 🐺
Thank you so much :)
The sound of that laser is every kids dream when you get a toy gun or tank. Sounds like that mini gun the terminator sculpture has.
С каждым разом твои видео становятся все лучше и лучше Обожаю твой канал

❣️✔️The video is very beautiful
Hur mycket tid går åt för att editera dina videos? Jag har följt dig sedan 2020 och det blir ju bara bättre och bättre! Sveriges största och bästa youtube-kanal ❤
Thanks ... sorry så först denna nu. Ett projekt tar ungefär 14-30 fulltids jobbdagar all inclusive ;-)
Weekend who start with one of you'r vidéos is one of the best weekend ever ,so happy man thank you si much.
Thanks for watching and for your kind words I really appreciate it 👍🏻 :)
Transforming a dull object into an an item of art and tradition. That was craftmanship at it's best. Not to mention the most important and necessary tool in the video, the fridge with the beers...😎😎
thank you so much, and yes the beer fridges are really important equipment 👍🍻
That laser engraving absolutely blew me away. Your videos never cease to amaze me! Keep up the great work
thank you i am glad you liked it
The Norse God of crafting whoever might be would be proud of your work👍
Brokkr Would be insulted to be called a God.. After all none of the gods can forge as well as even a dwarf half his talent! THe Norse didn't have a god of forges. The closet was Brokkr the dwarf that forged Odins Spear Gungnir and Tor's Hammer Mjölnir
Уважение и благодарность за контент! From Russia with Love
This man is an international treasure. We will need him in the coming years.
Yes :) 💖
I love these kind of projects! Taking a mundane item, and giving it a true personality! Awesome work as always Martin. Though I'm an American, and a Christian minister, I'm very much in touch with my Viking ancestry, and wear a high-relief Futhark ring every day. Thanks so much for another gem of a video brother. God bless. Rev. D.
thank you so much for your kind words I am really happy you liked it :) have an awesome day
That's really cool! A minister that wears the runes! I know a couple Christians who have read the old poems, but they don't admit it publicly haha
Now that's a real hammer, really amazing
Thanks - yes it really cool :)
Thanks for making my Saturday morning better!!! Have a Awesome Day.
Another fine example of Master Craftsmanship. I applaud you sir.
thank you so much Christopher :)
Simply awesome and awesome as usual but we miss the vintage things that u restore 😢and make it awesome again ❤
Thanks buddy. There will soon be more vintage ;-)
Очень круто 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻. Выглядит потрясающе 🤩
thank you very glad you liked it :)
God of Thunder from the Awesome Playground! Nice 👍
thanks so much glad you liked it :)
Your workshop makes the bat cave of Batman look like a Girl Scout camp. So awesome, of course.
😊😊 thanks so much. hope Batman is not reading this
Es impresionante la tecnología del laser de como plasmas los bocetos en el metal , me encanta tu trabajo sigue así porque esto es arte y calidad . 🇪🇦😃👍
*я cделал рэпклип на трап бит: водка и фанта! как вам* [
Deve ser realmente uma sensação incrível ter o dom de deixar tudo mais bonito. Ficou mesmo uma obra de arte.Parabéns.
Yes! What you said! Yes. 😊
*я cделал рэпклип на трап бит: водка и фанта! как вам* [
Eu tb gosto!
I would lose my mind having a shop like yours! I'm sure you have "mundane" things to do to keep the lights on, but to just have the tools and space to let my creativity run free would be mind-blowing. I'm teaching my boss the basics of blacksmithing and he's gone all in at a pace that amazes me. He's gone from basic forging to making pommels and cross-guards and is thinking about trying his hand at forge welding already. That Works and your channel are commonly ones that I recommend to him for ideas and knowledge, the skill and creativity you guys have is astounding. Yet another great piece of work!
I couldn't agree more!! Plastic does not belong on tools! Especially hammers and axes. I appreciate your nod to the old ways and your use of the runes. Beautiful work sir!
thank you so much for your comment :)
Once again made to look simple but the effort and hours you put into each video is amazing. Another great video and always makes my day when your video notification pops up. Respect from Scotland 👍
Как всегда, красота!!! Очень круто!!!
thanks so much :)
That hammer turned in to a big WOW😁. Great job AR and big thanks!!
thanks so much Tom. Have an awesome week-end :)
Well, Martin...what can I say? There should be only hammers like this in stores, beautiful! The perfect Thor's Hammer! Great job as usual!! 💪🍻
thanks Francesca I agree ugky hammers should be replaced :)
Шедеврально!👍С удовольствием смотрю канал Мастера, приятно видеть, как из неприглядной заготовки рождается произведение искусства! Отдельное спасибо за титры на русском языке! Заслуженный лайк!👍👍👍

Esse cara é um artista. Ele podia fazer uma miniserie de restaurações, combinando tipos de cenários para cada tipo de obra. Ficaria sensacional. Esse martelo ficou sinistro demais. Perfeito!!
