September 4, 200619 yr Hi! Just thought I should introduce myself. My name is Bendik Eriksen. I am a blacksmith apprentice at the restoration workshop of the Nidaros cathedral in Trondheim, Norway. I am 19 years old and started blacksmithing a year ago. I always enjoy a nice chat or discussion about this ancient craft and I hope to draw some inspiration and knowledge from this site and also contribute in some way :)
