Nils Ögren - Invidious

Nils Ögren

My name is Nils Ögren and I am a Swedish Blacksmith!
I began forging in the spring of 2017, with only an old barbeque grill, a hair dryer, a hammer & a big piece of metal as an anvil. I now have my own workshop and i make videos documenting my journey as a craftsman and a blacksmith on a monthly basis. In 2019 i began forging axes and have been obsessed by that ever since. I love to learn new things and that sparked me to create and upload videos to this youtube channel. Anything from Historical axes, Mosaic Damascus, Powerhammers, Swords, Knives and so forth, is in my line of sight!

I invite you to join me on this journey and i hope that i can bring some inspiration to your projects and ideas!

Take care!
/Nils
