The Past with Jesse Savage

Description:  Jesse Savage of Savage Forge returns to talk about the past. Jesse is one of my good friends and is not only a great blacksmith, but is a wealth of knowledge on the history of blacksmithing, anvils and an instructor at The Center for Metal Arts. He’s also a founding member of the 7 blue ribbon championship forging team “The Modern Forge”.  We had a great time catching up about our time at CMA, how the history of forging has changed and what’s to come. The shift in technology has changed the cultural need of what the blacksmith has to offer and we talked a lot about Samuel Yellin who created forgings that dovetailed into the design ethos of the time. Can a resurgence happen again? For years Jesse and I have been asking the question “What is the role of the Modern Day Blacksmith”? Every time we talk I think we get closer and closer- See you soon - GF  Follow Jesse on instagram:https://www.instagram.com/jessesavageblacksmith/Listen to his Podcast- The Blacksmith’s Pubhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-blacksmiths-pub-podcast/id1210513735Heres the link Jesse referenced:https://www.instagram.com/eveleighworks/Visit CMA’s website:https://centerformetalarts.org/***DON’T MISS THE CAMBRIA CONFERENCE SEPTEMBER 17TH! Tap here for details: https://centerformetalarts.org/cambria-iron-conference-2/There are still spots available for my next Forged Friction Folder workshop at CMASept 3 & 4th:https://centerformetalarts.org/product/friction-folder/Jesse and Carrie have classes at CMA you should check them out:https://centerformetalarts.org/product/introduction-to-forging-fire-poker/https://centerformetalarts.org/product/blacksmithing-basics-bottle-opener/Please subscribe, leave a review and tell your friends about the show. it helps me out a lot! Welcome TotalBoatAdhesives, paints, primers and polishing compounds.Go to https://www.totalboat.com/And put in “Fullblast10” for 10% off Go get yourself some all natural , food safe Axe WaxGo to https://axewax.us/And get 10% off with promocode: FULLBLAST10AkinteractiveGet your Website designed by AK Interactive, Consultation, Graphic Design, logos, Signage design. 25+ years experience in FULL SERVICE Website design, Graphic design and marketing for knife makers and all Craftsman:http://akinteractive.com/fullblast10% off with promo code: FULLBLAST10TRMaker@TRMAKERTR on instagram Makers of an incredible grinding jig Sharpening jigsContact wheelsKnife making supplies. Super duper fast shipping well made Go to TR-Maker.comBrodbeck Ironworks Makers of an Incrediblly versatile grinder, with Many different attachmentsLeather sewing equipment and even abrasives Go to Brodbeckironworks.com put in promo code Knifetalk and get the upgrade to the Mareko platen. Get your Blacksmith hammers from John Erianne akahttps://www.instagram.com/sunsetforgenj/http://sunsetforgenj.com/new-productsGo look at the course curriculum at CMA:https://centerformetalarts.org/workshops/** Taking classes from some of the best in forging at one of the best facilities in the country is an excellent opportunity to propel yourself as a blacksmith.
