About The Georgia Blacksmith
Welcome! My name is Spencer. I am an amateur blacksmith and bladesmith with a passion to learn all I can about Blacksmithing and Bladesmithing. I have been making blades part-time since 2025 and look forward to transitioning to full-time when I can.
Like many, I was influenced by Forged in Fire when it came out in 2015. I wasn’t able to put hammer to steel until 2018 when I took a short 4 hour class where we made a railroad spike knife. That lit a spark that has encouraged me to explore the craft more in depth. I took an American Bladesmithing Society Into To Bladesmithing class in January of 2025 and was off to the races after that. I look forward to seeing where this journey goes and sharing it all along the way.
Why The Georgia Blacksmith
I have lived in Georgia all my life. It is definitely where I call home and it is, in my opinion, one of the best states to be in. Also, it was available when I searched the internet.
I am a proud U.S. Army Veteran and have been serving for almost a decade.
