Howdy!

An update: First our grinder sale is still ongoing...we are still $800.00 short on getting the replacement wheels. Geeze these things are $$$ .. Jim is still working as fast as he can without the grinder but it is slow going.  So we are still open to best offers on anything we currently have in stock in order to help get these wheels so Jim can get back to a faster production run.

What is coming...albeit slowly.. Black iron mounted swords and daggers and since the grinding has been slowed down to  crawl.. Jim had a chance to do a couple of crucible melts and is hammering out several crucible steel (wootz) blades.  What these will be is still undecided. More on these as things progress.

In closing.. Thank you all for the interest and support..

Hello!!!

As mentioned in my previous update my grinder sale has started ..I am pretty much dead in the water as they say until I manage to get enough lucre to get the parts I need so please take a look at the sale price schedule.. I am pretty much limited to what I can do by hand..other than hot work.. and even then that is somewhat delayed due to my grinder being down but I am more or less hampered in getting work finished... This sale will run until I get enough pieces sold to cover the costs of the repairs...

If anything strikes your interest, please contact me....via e-mail is best at the moment (My e-mail is  This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) ..Everything listed is currently available and I am open to honest offers on anything on this web site...  So take a look....

Thank you all for your interest..

Hello!!

An update...we have just posted several new items on our in stick pages.  One is a very nice welded cable dagger with a fluted Bakelite grip...So take a peek,

Well the "Powers That Be" paid us a visit. Jim blew out one of his grinders and frankly that really puts us in a bit of a bind so we need to raise around $1500.00  to get replacement wheels, bearings and a few other parts that are needed to get it back up and running and Jim back to work as planned before the grinder broke down.,.. When this blew it really blew up.. So we are having a sale.. This sale will start on Jan 07 2025 and will run until we get enough filthy lucre to get the needed parts and Jim back to work...  So as soon as everything is in place.. we will post a notice on here...

We hope you all had a Joyous New Year and let us all hope that 2025 is a better year than 2024 was.

Thank you all for the interest..

Hello!!  

It is Christmas Eve for all of my Christian friends..so to them I wish a Merry Christmas as they celebrate the birth of their Prophet and teacher. I hope each one of you rejoice in celebration as well as reflect upon his teachings. He was a man of Peace and a Mercy sent by God.

My friends of the Jewish faith,,,Happy  Hanukka..May you and yours rejoice in the celebrations..

To my fellow Zoroastrians, the 26th is Zartosht No-Diso, the day we reflect upon the death of our Prophet Zarathurshtra. A solemn day of prayer and rememberences. A day of self reflection ...

And to all...Our best wishes to you and yours for this joyous time of the year... May the wise Lord bless you all with good fortune and health....
