hi this is daQo'tah

almost everything that i do while I try to make a knife is wrong, and yet very very funny.

I love to write about the things that happen to me and my bladesmithing, but Im not sure where to post them,,,Im so new to all of this knife making, that I dont want to take up time and space with things others might find pointless and in the way,,,,is there a place to post stories ,,,like the adventure I had today when I tried to lite my coal forge out of the wind inside my shop,,,only to learn that "a coal forge is a darn smokey, stinky thing,,,or as my wife told me,,,,"DaQo'tah lets make this your Outside toy next time okay?", ?
 
For many of us your stories resurect fond memories. Put them up here, have fun with it and stick with it. But: like Alled said, Take Care
 
Don't bring back any memories for me but still keep me smilling. Esp. when the cats appear in the story. ;)
 
I have been playing at forging for about 10 years. I put a 4lb hammer head on a new handle. I did not glue and wedge it. You gest it it came off the other day nearly got me in the head. That was only a couple of weeks ago.

Just lucky for me my wife was taking a micro video of it. I have another photo of me forging in light rain and a rain coat. I had an urgent job and nothing was going to stop me.

Keep the stories comming.
