I am addicted to Forged in Fire. I have also always had an interest in edged weapons. I have done some research and am pretty sure I could construct a Forge etc. However I am nearly 60 years old, I have a bad shoulder, a hip replacement, and other arthritic issues. So Before I invest the time and $$ in building a forge and finding or building some type of "Anvil", I would like to find someone who would be willing to help me forge my first blade. That way I will know if my poor beat up body can take the pounding, so to speak. I actually have a few a few tools, they include a decent Maul, two different tongs, and a Railroad spike from which to forge the blade. So if there is anyone out there who would like to try to teach a grumpy old man some basic forging skills let me know please. Thanks! BTW I'm realistic and am not expecting to make Excalibur my first time....
