Announcement    Usable Everyday Art, Created from Fire and Steel. Made in the USA and Forged with Love

Our blacksmith shop sits in a rustic barn wood building at the northwest edge of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, just minutes from Lake Superior - where not so long ago, iron came out of the ground so pure all the rest of the world compared their ore to ours.

We run our shop mostly on hand tools, with a forge and hand crank blower, drill press, home made treadle lathe, and other old fashioned tools. We choose to upcycle already used steel whenever possible, and offer natural finish options like olive oil and beeswax for beautiful, well protected metal goods.

When you buy from us, you support a small, self sustaining homestead run by folks who'd rather live in the woods and gather wild food than work in a store in a city - and we So appreciate your patronage!
