The Budding Trees

They grow up so fast

I had some special friends in my studio last week. Raven, their mom and their brother, age 10, came for a visit. I first taught Raven when they were 8, they are now 16 and taller than me!! We forged a rose together eight years ago. It was my pleasure and honour to teach them and their family once again. Laughter and shenanigans ensued. Everyone went home with an amazing fully forged high carbon blade with hard wood handles.

This event made me really very grateful for the friends and contacts I have made over the years. Teaching is an amazing experience one that I throw my heart and soul into each time. I hope to share with as many as I can the craft that I love so much.
