Hello!
My name is William, but I typically go by Billy. I have been a backyard bladesmith for about a year now, and felt it was time to join up with the ABS. <img src=' http://www.americanbladesmith.com/ipboard/public/style_emoticons//smile.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> I have a small, modest forge setup behind my home in Transfer, Pennsylvania, and am looking forward to working hard on honing a great skill set. Happy and proud to be here with you all! Will stick a couple quick pics down below. <img src=' http://www.americanbladesmith.com/ipboard/public/style_emoticons//smile.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> Note, I switched up the wood I used when I got to the handle, haha! <img src=' http://www.americanbladesmith.com/ipboard/public/style_emoticons//tongue.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' />
Howdy Billy!
