About Me

After years of watching Forged in Fire with my daughters, they gifted me a forge for Father’s Day.  I had no idea where it might lead, but I started experimenting with basic blacksmithing and connected with some great local individuals who were passionate about knife-making and willing to patiently teach. With the support of those individuals and the patience of my family and friends, that spark grew into a fire that has become quite a passion for me.  Regardless of the project, taking raw materials, a bit of creativity, and watching an idea become reality has become incredibly satisfying.   It is exciting to push myself, try new things, and see the results.  Thank you to those who have patiently coached me and those who have provided new ideas and opportunities to try new things.  I can’t wait to see where this may go.
