Welcome Pierre. I see you are from my old stomping grounds. Woosta. Take the Pike outta town, as we used to say.

Hi Joshua, yes, I’ve lived in southern Worcester county my whole life but call Worcester home these days. Browsing the forums I have already gleaned some new tricks from many of your posts! Looking forward to learning more every day.
Welcome Pierre,
I too am based in MA (Marblehead), and started blacksmithing/knifemaking last fall. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions/ stuff not to do as a beginner.
I just finished a 2 week ABS intro to knifemaking course at the NE School of Metalwork, and I can't recommend them and their classes highly enough.
