Bladesmiths In Fl.

[herlihy433@yahoo.com]

Any of you guys live in Florida? I haven't met any other bladesmiths face to face. I would like to see another's style or maybe some one to criticize mine, so that I can improve in my skills. Everything I know about knives has come from books,internet, or dvds. I will start going to hammer-ins but from what ive seen most of these are states away and will take a lot of planing. I am willing to travel 200 miles or so If need be and will pay for or bring consumables That I use. I will be free until March....Sean

There are a few of us. We just had a hammer in out in Eastern Hillsborough/Almost Mulberry two weekends ago.

Yea the hammer in at Todd Fischer's place was definately awesome. We made a sweet collaboration knife. Too bad I did not win the raffle though. I am strictly stock removal, no swinging hammers for me right now.

Check out FABA they usually have knife making stuff at their annual conference. I demonstrated there a few years ago.

There are actually a lot. Check the Knifemaker's Guild for the huge list of makers in FL. I think it's almost all the members. lol
