Hello, everyone!
My name is Kiril Mitrashkov and I am from Bulgaria - South-East Europe.
I started first as a (old) knife collector, but soon I got the itch and started making knives. This happened probably ten years ago and maybe five years ago I started forging.
Two years ago I passed the Master bladesmith and knifemaker test and from 2018 I am a member of the Bulgarian guild of craftsmen. Yet here I am a humble apprentice. Here I see makers, whose work I really admire and I am honoured to be a (small) part of this society!
Once again - thanks for letting me join the ABS!
I am not lazy, I am on energy saving mode!

Your brother lives ~70 kilometers away from me.
Believe it or not, a few years ago I was spending almost every weekend in Suhindol - a few kilometers from Koevtsi! A very close friend of mine lived there and I loved fishing in the Stamboliiski dam! But this is a different story!
Funny fact: Suhindol is famous for it's wine factory and the wine they make. The wine was one of the reasons I was there so often. And the cultural club in Suhindol is called "Soberty".
