I've been making stock removal knives for several years now. I decided to join the ABS this year at the blade show. Feel like I need to take my knives to the next level. I'm gonna continue stock removal until I finish my bigger shop and gather the rest of my tools for forging. Have my forge done. Working on getting a anvil and some tongs.

I've met a lot of you all. Look forward to meeting the rest of yall and learning about forging so some day I can pass my knowledge on.

Thanks Mark

Welcome to the forum Mark, the ABS is certainly the best place to learn about forging blades!

Thanks will do Chris. Here's a couple pics of my larger shop. Hope to have metal work and framing done this weekend.

I resized the pics hopefully I got it right.

Dean Pavia if you could check your inbox. I'd like to slip by your shop one day at your convenience. Thanks
