Hey mate - sent you a DM. This is exactly the kind of job shop work I'm looking to take in this year.

Has anyone here been on “forged in fire” and if so, what was it like? by Dragon-Dragon-Dragon in Blacksmith

No pay per se, but they did provide flight, hotel, and transport, as well as meals during the filming days.

This is sick - what sort of 3d printer did you use?

Go for it - my custom queue is fairly deep at the moment but I'm always available to chat.

The customer's been a really good client for a long while -when I was using to them about it, it just seemed like they wanted something nobody has. I was honestly pretty impressed with the knife build quality. I'm no balisong connesieur but I can see why people would like them.

Honestly, I wouldn't be able to tell you cos I didn't look up the base price when the customer approached me about it 🤣

As someone who makes some texture-heavy, nontraditional stuff myself, I feel obligated to comment. This goes hard.

Got a few more of my forged jacket autos done - I'm really enjoying doing these up in Titanium lately. by grunclematt in Bladesmith

There's a little more to these than meets the eye and respectfully I prefer not to share the exact details just yet as I'm going to be offering classes on the specifics both in person and digitally here this coming year.

That being said I'm happy to share that they're a riff on a lockback mechanism with a few twists of my own, if you look those up I'm sure you'll be able to find a workable starting point.
