Hi everyone,

I've recently entered the realm of forging knives after having made a couple of cutters by stock-removal. I was lucky enough to attend an ABS course at Heavin Forge in Belfast, South-Africa where we got shown the ropes by Kevin and Heather Harvey.

As part of my plan from here I''ve decided to complete a few half-projects that have been lying around for a while and spend some time setting up my forge and anvil properly. Moving house a few moths ago didn't help, since I am still realising which tools were'nt unpacked and what bits and bobs went missing.

Hopefully I'll have a couple of forged knives to show pretty soon.

Dylan

Welcome to the ABS and Forum. I had the chance to meet Kevin and Heather at a Hammer-in last year, good people.
