About the blacksmith

A few years ago I was huge into bush craft. Starting fires and building primitive shelters, never thought I’d be a blacksmith. But after a long search for the “best” survival knife I was left left with disappointment. A lot of knives I had was cheep imported trash that would snap under the slightest bit of pressure, and couldn’t hold a edge. That’s when I saw a YouTube video from Black Bear Forge, he made a knife with just a hole dug into the ground and a hair dryer. I thought if it was that simple I had to give it a try. Well from a simple hole in the ground and a leaf blower for months I hammered on a old metal I beam, ringing everything off that mountain.
