In this video I forge an 80 layer raindrop damascus chef's knife as a Christmas present to my mom, who has been invaluable in helping take care of our twins.

I took a break from woodworking to freshen up my blacksmithing skills, and moving forward my channel will likely be a mix of both blacksmithing and woodworking.

My twins, Silas and Abel, were born ~10 months ago, 10 weeks premature, after an extremely risky pregnancy due to being MoMo (monoamniotic/monochorionic). We had a 105 day straight hospital stay, and about 3 months at home with extra respiratory support, so life has been a bit hectic, hence the reduced and mostly short form content.
