Hi,
i ran across a facinating account
Fuzulikalem on instagram
thought i would share
he holds the graver in an interesting manner
he uses a hammer…mesmerizing to watch…
very talented
i like the way he transfers patterns
(not sure what he does)
he also uses a mechanical oencil to draw out patterns onto the piece

…it sounds like he is using a pneumatic handpiece…but he is actually using a hammer…interesting graver holder as well…

I took a workshop from Amayak here in Denver last year. He engraves beautiful knives using gravers set in a wooden handle and uses a chasing hammer to do the engraving.
wow! thank you fir sharing!
