Hello members of the ABS. My name is Chris Griffith. I started out on the dark side a little over a year ago making stock-removal knives for the Bushcraft community, but I saw the light a ways back. I've been hunting for a forge and some basic forging tools ever since I got started, and this passed weekend I picked up a Whisper Momma, a post anvil, a longer quench tank, some tongs and a Rockwell Tester (not really forging equipment, but it came with the lot and can't hurt). I look forward to attending a Hammer-In and Introduction to Bladesmithing Course very soon.

HERE is a link to all of my completed work (including my first knives).

Hello Mr. Griffith. It's great to see another new face. I checked out your link, very nice knives! . I'm still figuring out posting pictures.

Thank you for the warm welcome, gents. I'm very happy to be here, and I look forward to beginning my first forged blade as soon as the new hose comes in for the Whisper Momma.

Thanks for the welcome, MS Tomberlin! Thank you--also--for the reassurance in my new-to-me forge. I can't wait to get started.
