When it comes to the appreciation for Anvils, tools and their history, its hard to find someone as knowledgable, articulate and compelling as Andrew Alexander. @Blacksmithtools returns for another fun filled conversation about the ongoing conversation I’ve been having with my guests about “The role of the modern day Blacksmith” and where blacksmithing fits in to the times we live in. We talked about how history has made the direction of the craft pivot; even suggesting anvil companies may have pushed the direction of how we see blacksmithing by making anvils and tools more approachable to not just professional blacksmiths. It was a fun conversation CUT SHORT by Technology! Sorry about that and I address it at the end of the episode. But think of it as a part one. We’re running it back next week and Andrew will return to finish off where we started. Thanks again AA for your flexibility and understanding. Can’t wait to speak next week. All the best- GF
