Humble beginnings:
My journey in bladesmithing began some years ago when I first played my dream guitar. Unfortunately, that guitar wasn’t able to come home with me because of the dreaded price tag. After gathering materials and a lot of reading, I built my first guitar. Since then, my obsession with hand made quality has grown exponentially. I realized that most of the best tools were not the newer mass produced models but instead antique or vintage. Tools back then were purposely built so that they will last several lifetimes. My creations will provide confidence and spark a personal connection with the user. I want people to understand and embrace the fact that my creations are true heirloom pieces that will be useful, reliable, and beautiful tools for generations. Forged In Fire: In November 2018 I was invited to be on the History Channel's popular show, Forged In Fire. It was an amazing experience and exposed me to many different aspects of the craft. Since the show, I have focused my energy on building a long term plan which will fully immerse me into not only the craft, but also the business. Check out Jared, Joshua, Daniel, and Myself on Forged In Fire: Season 6 Episode 22.
