Thank you all for your advice I like in a little town in north Texas about an hour or so southeast from Dallas I am 15 years old and will be a sophomore I have been interested in blacksmithing and knife making for a while now and I have a coal forge, anvil, little grinder, a few hammers, and other tools... I'm just trying to get advice and pointers on what to get and where I should go to learn thank you all for your inputs

Alright I'm new to the world of blacksmithing and I actually have quite a few things right now that have gotten me along but I want to go bigger... I have a 1x30 grinder and I want to buy a 2x72 KMG it runs at about $2500... That will be most of my paycheck from this summer... I also want to buy a gas forge the one I would buy is on eBay for $650 it's a 5 burner sword forge so I could use it for anything really... Last I want to build a power hammer but i don't know what to get first or if I should get any of these yet I have a coal forge and I have hammers I just want to go bigger please give advice!
