Free Form Forging Dies
Item #
LDC Large Double Combination (pair) *
An excellent die for general purpose forging operations, including
drawing out/tapering of square, rectangular and round stock. The
radius section moves the material quickly and the flat side is useful
for blocking in parallel sides, using set tools and flattening.
LTC Large Triple Combination (pair) *
Has all of the qualities of the double combo, plus the added 1.5” fuller
for necking down on leaves or balls, fullering on curves and texturing.
Great for vines and organic work. 2.375 x 6.5”:r1=4.00” r2=.375”
LDF Large Drawing-Fuller Combination (pair) *
Divided into equal halves of 3.25” these dies are a tour de force of
radius die forging. The larger radius is ideal for long tapers or rounding
out stock. The small radius fuller provides for superior control in
transitions and texturing. 2.375 x 6.5”:r1=4:00” r2=.50”
LDD Large Drawing Dies (pair) *
Use on flat, round or square stock. These dies are especially useful
for freehand forging of pipe and tubing. Can also be used for fullering
and spreading. 2.375”x6.5”; r=4.00”
SFD Standard Flat Dies (pair)
Very versatile dies are fully hardened throughout, making them
adaptable by grinding without loss of hardness. Radius the edges,
grind in a texture, modify the profile. 2.375 x 4.75”
SDC Standard Double Combination (pair)
For making the most out of your forging time combination dies can’t
be beat. The radius side draws material out quickly and the flat side
keeps it in line. Also use the radius for spreading and the flat for tool
work. 2.375 x 4.75”; r=4.00
SDF Standard Drawing - Fuller Combination (pair)
Divided into equal halves of 2.375”. Extremely handy for tapering
and spreading. The larger radius is ideal for long tapers or rounding
out stock. The small radius fuller provides for superior control in
transitions, as well as texturing. 2.375 x 4.75”:r1=4:00” r2=.50”
SFFC Standard Fuller-Flat Combination (pair)
Sharp fuller is made for necking down at transitions, texturing and
general fullering operations. By fullering the outside half of a flat bar
a beautiful radius can be quickly turned. 2.375 x 4.75”: r=.375”
LFD Large Flat Dies (pair) *
Essential for the bladesmith pattern welding large billets. These can
become what you make them. With radiused edges they become
West Coast drawing dies. Make your own combinations! 2.375 x 6.5”
WFD Wide Flat Die (pair) *
More than 16 square inches of surface area, it makes an excellent
choice for pattern welding billets, set tool work and texturing. Fully
hardened and tempered to allow easy modifications. 3.25” x 5.00”
TWF Two Way Fuller Die (pair)
Fantastic dies for working sheet, plate or flat bar. With the slight side to
side radius the fuller doesn’t dig into the work on the ends. Sculptors
will find these dies indispensable. 1.25” x 4.75” r1=1.00”, r2=8.00”
SSD Special Sculpture Dies (pair)
Essentially these are giant ball peens, with convex surfaces. They
can be used as a pair, offset, or with a flat bottom die to produce
different effects in moving the metal. 2.375 x 2.375”
STMD Special Toolmakers Dies (pair)
For drawing out the edge of a sword blade, spokeshave or knife. The
top die acts as a fuller to spread the edge, while the flat bottom die
provides stable platform. 2.375 x 4.75” top: r1=4.00” bot.: flat w/ radii.

Texture Dies
Item #
PD Peening Texture Die (one die)
For texturing flat bar with a traditional peened texture. The raised
convex areas vary between .375” and .75” in root diameter. These
dies may be used singly with a flat top die or as a pair for two sided
texturing. For hot material. 2.375 x 4.375”
BTD Bark Texture Die (pair)

texture in round or flat material. The pattern is graduated in size from
side to side for versatility. 3.25 x 5.00”
CF Cross Fuller Texture Die (one die)
Raised ridges are spaced to produce a lovely subtle texture in flat or
square material. This texture was used extensively in French Deco of
the 1920’s. 2.375 x 4.75”
Tool Holding Dies
Item #
USD Upper Saddle Die (one die) *
With a selection of shop-made saddles attached to the die via a .5”
through bolt the smith can create a huge range of shapes in short
order. Combine this with the Hardy Hole Holder on the lower die and
you’re ready to tackle all of those tricky shapes. 2.375 x 6.5”
HHH Hardy Hole Holder (one die)
The Hardy Hole Holder is the most useful gadget at my forge. It slips
around the lower die, resting on the sow block. The 1” square hole
accepts a tenoned .75 x 4” x 8” A36 plate, which rests on the die.
Myriad shop-made accessories can then be welded to this plate.
Can you use oversized dies?
Sahinler’s ram (front piston) does not travel
upwards past the edge of the dovetail way.;
dies may overhang the circle of the piston.
Can you change the orientation of the dies?
Yes. The front piston can be rotated every 20º.
How long does it take to change the dies?
It takes about 15-30 seconds to swap dies.
We can modify any of these dies to fit other power hammer brands. We also make custom dies.
