Yesterday, I had the great pleasure of demonstrating blacksmithing to Boy Scout troop 316. It was my 1st time doing this and I was very grateful for how well it went for all of us. It was a very positive experience for all. I'm also very grateful for the great support I received from the scout masters and the scouts.

We made a giant fishing hook and a Bowie knife. Thanks scouts for your major contribution to the knife. I definitely want to do blacksmith demos again.

The photos posted here are in compliance with scout troup policy. The scouts pictured were approved by their fathers.
