TrippHammer Forging Philosophy
​
Form follows function.  If a tool works well (function) then it has been well formed.  There is nothing more beautiful than a well designed and executed tool.  The tool designs which have persisted throughout history have done so because they function well.  A blacksmith's crosspein hammer is the perfect tool for forging.  Each smith forges his hammer to look different; but the balance, weight, and working faces of the tool vary only slightly.  Viking hammers unearthed in archaeological digs bear a striking resemblance to modern crosspein hammers.
