    My Dad and I got started back in the 70's. Weyger's book was one we used while taking blacksmithing classes at the local community college. So your mention of "recent" resurgence goes back how far?  I think what is driving the surge now is social media, and the internet forums like this one. Back when I started it was all done by mail, and searches at libraries. Today you can access information from around the world with a couple of keystrokes.

    Recent as in the past 20 to 25 years if that helps at all.

  2. Hey I am a high school senior who is interested in becoming a Smith so much so I am doing my senior project research paper with the research question ” Why has there been a resurgence in Blade and Blacksmithing in recent years?” I am currently working on my rough draft and was asked to talk about what camps/associations have been doing to keep/expand interest in the fields. So I would like to ask you all for your input on the subject and some peer review on my paper. There are probably other things I should ask but I can’t remember them. If you are interested in reading my rough draft I will share what I have with you via google docs. Thank You.
