The present invention relates to a method of forging turbine blade, which comprises forging a plurality of turbine blades as an integrally connected body in a longitudinal direction, and then separating the integrally connected body into said respective turbine blades. According to the method of the invention, a yield of material can be improved as compared with the conventional art and the number of processes for forging work can be reduced. In addition, the turbine blades cab be forged into a favorable shape without occurring cracks. Further, it is possible to effectively reduce the cost for the die required for the forging work.
