Today Is my first with my new blog, abouth old iron crafts, that have been my interest for 16 years, starting with some months on a Danish folkhighschool; Højskolen I Thy, were I was introdused to the art of blacksmithing, and was turned on for that from the very first minut.
First of all I was facinated of making my own knives, first to forge the blade, then handle it with a nice piece of wood, form it and make a leader sheat for it.
I was just amaced, and knew at that point that this craft will be a part of the rest of my life!!
Even after all these years I´m still turned on for it, and have new ideas I have to tri out, the last thing i have done is this gasburner, and a gasforge I´w build for making paternwelding or maybe better known as Damaskus steel, it´s not the same, but very familiar to each other; more abouth that later on.
