A metalworkers’ assemblage from a grave at Bygland, Norway, 10th century CE. It contained a wide range of tools, from heavy sledgehammers, small chisels, and punches, to a long-handled iron pan for melting lead and tin resting on a soapstone mould for casting ingots [1525×1046]

I was taught the blacksmith skills from my maternal grandfather. Each tool in this collection is sill in use today with very little change in form. I own many of them myself.
Another interesting find is the [Mastermyr collection](https://www.thevikingherald.com/article/exploring-the-maestermyr-chest-discovery-and-its-viking-era-tools/709).
A viking age tool chest from Gotland which has a large collection of blacksmithing and some carpentry tools.
