Currently, I am a "hobbyist" blade maker in SW Ohio, I'm working on stepping things up several notches to become a [u]Real[/u] blademaker someday and not the amature I am now.

I love metal working espcially knives and swords.

I am far from being knowledgeable or what most would consider skilled. I am self taught which is fine to a point but it has created gaps in my overall knowledge and understanding.

I am here to get on a more solid, realistic and serious path for learning bladesmithing.
