Pro tip: Hand-forging vs power hammers for detail work
Some smiths say hand tools give more control for intricate designs, while others argue power hammers save time without losing quality. I'm split after using both on a custom knife handle. Where do you stand?

But was that precision from the hand tools just about feeling, or the actual result? On those really tight curves for the handle, does the power hammer just become too much to control?
