I take you along with me as I go about the day to day business of running a small blacksmith shop. I'll discuss the things I'm making, the tools I'm using or reviewing as well as chats with other smiths.
The hosts discuss the Blade show, engage in shop talk, and share a cautionary note about specializing in specific skills.
