Central Virginia Blacksmiths Guild

Hopefully this forum is not closed for good. I live in Nottoway County and I am interested in Blacksmithing more towards knife making. I've been doing a lot of research but that's as far as I have gotten. It would be great to be able to actually be able to pick someone's brain in person and see how involved it is.
