95golf Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 I've been 'smithing about a year now, mostly ornamental and sculpture. Knives are an interest but I've only finished three so far. Great web site! I'll be visiting often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted T Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 95golf Welcome! The Blacksmith / blade smiths seem to be abundant at this site. I am just learning to navigate the site with a little more skill now. The more I learn about the site, the more dynamic I realize it is. I find people here share information openly. I would bet you will find it to be a great resource. Be safe, be safe! Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don A Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Hello 95golf, I just noticed your location. I'm just south of you; Blount Co. right near the Sevier Co. line. There's some fine smiths up your way. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95golf Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 Good to hear from a neighbor! I got hooked on blacksmithing from the guy who works at the smithy in Dollywood, (Sevierville). His name is Richard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don A Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Richard Williams? I've seen him demo at hammer-ins. He is good... and a minimalist; I like that. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95golf Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 This must be the same Richard...he does some unbelievable knives with no power tools. I saw a feather he forged that looked real! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
