Here Fishy, Fishy

With the ability to shape metal it opens the possibility of making any form. I have made bottle openers in many different shapes. Here is a fish I made. After the forging the fish and bottle opening end in the tail, the metal was treated with Japanese brown, a chemical which turns the surface of the metal a brown to protect it from rusting.
