Ian E. Powell
Blacksmithing, done properly
- 🇺🇸 San Jose, California, United States
- San Jose Workshop
- 1981 to 2003
- English
I've worked in blacksmithing from 1981 to 2003. I learned from my grandfather and passed what I could on to 1,280 apprentices.
I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I'm always reading two books at once.
I'm proud of everyone I got to work with.
More about Ian
Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.
