Hi, just decided to join this forum. Had made two orders from the supply house before I noticed the forums :D We live on a farm in Eastern,Kentucky. In the appalachias, Floyd co. We run a forge out of the farm though my wife has taken over the business of the forge and Im more the teacher now. We mostly sell hawks and period knives. Of course being where we are we still use a coal forge along with the gasser.
Anyway here is some of the stuff that comes out of the shop. You can probably tell there is more "blacksmith" than "bladesmith" in a lot of the work :D

You Kentucky boys better get together and form your own club...
 
Welcome from another Blacksmith who makes a few blades. Check out the Tennessee and Environs Knife Dogs Group under the "Community Tab". 'Course it looks like that there are enough of you Kentuckians to have your own group.
