The Alchemist Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Hi everyone, my name is Josh. I am pretty new to forging. My main interest is kitchen knives, I am a chef. I am starting to want to learn how to make hammers and other tools though. I am mentoring under a master blacksmith with over 20 years of experience. I am very interested in meeting people in my area and sharing ideas and experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WayneCoeArtistBlacksmith Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 In Columbia two blacksmiths are Steve Williamson and Steven Feinstein, both fine fellows and excellent blacksmiths. I am about 150 miles from Columbia but you are invited to come visit. Just call ahead of time. Let me know if I can help you. Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasPowers Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 What a new person who puts their general location in their profile! Quick tell me you only want to forge swards and them weighing over 20 pounds---using a plaster of paris forge and a cast iron ASO before I have palpitations! Welcome and thanks for your courtesy; I hope to meet you at Quad-State someday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
