Frosty Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Yeah, removing the bad parts usually eases the ailments. Good to hear he's up and on the move again. I didn't expect this to stop or even slow him down much. Thanks for forwarding his status to us Steve. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caotropheus Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Greetings people I was today with Hofi at the annual Israeli blacksmiths meeting. He showed up in a wheel chair and he is in good spirits. He goes regularly to his smithy but he is not yet actively smithing or teaching. Needless to say everyone gave him a very warm welcome and treated him like a king!

lyuv Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Several days ago I mentioned I know Hofi, and was asked to post about his well being. Several months ago one of his legs was amputated, followed by a long hospitalization and rehabilitation. But it's only one leg, and Hofi is only 84 years young. So no biggie and he's back at the anvil. I visited him today, and disturbed him grinding a batch of several dozens hammers. He also plans to renew the classes. BTW - in November he will host a celebration for the 30th anneversary of the smithy (and smiithing). There will be a large log, and each guest is invited to bring a nail he forged, and stick it in the log. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
