About
About
My work at The Wilde Forge is the result of a lifelong obsession with making things and a deep connection to nature. Long before I picked up a hammer and fired up the forge, I spent my childhood wandering the woods near my home. That early fascination with the forest and it's untamed grace is the heartbeat of my work today.
At the moment, I focus on handcrafted silver jewelry that captures the quiet, organic details of the wilderness.Each piece is an attempt to translate the fleeting beauty of a branch or a leaf into a permanent, wearable form.
Looking ahead, I am expanding my repertoire into steel. Having spent 15 years as a professional chef, I know exactly how a blade should feel, balance, and cut. That real world experience is driving my current development of professional grade chef's knives and custom blades.
I am also actively experimenting with custom metallurgy, including Shibuichi, brass and bronze alloys. These distinct silver and copper based alloys will be the foundation of upcoming jewelry, sculptures and custom works.
Working at home work station
Working at home work station
My workshop is actually split between two locations. I have a proper forge I utilize as well as a fine detail work table I use when I am unable to get outside to the forge. I do most of my silver work at the table and most of my steel work in the forge.
Heating a blade for the "quench"
Heating a blade for the "quench"
In this photo, I am in the process of heating up a knife to a certain temperature rage and getting ready to quench it in oil. This process hardens the steel so it can retain a sharp edge longer.
Happy about a Katana
Happy about a Katana
My first prototype katana. Unfortunately I lack a tempering oven large enough to heat treat a katana efficiently and as a result am not comfortable selling anything I can not guarantee "battle ready". I take pride in my work and want all of it to be "battle ready" or as durable as possible. When it comes to blades, I do not simply make show pieces.
Hammering out silver

Texturing and work hardening a strip of silver for a ring. Work hardening can be achieved multiple ways and in general increases the durability of a metal, depending on the metal of course.
