Walter F. Baker

Local blacksmithing and weaving

  • 🇺🇸 San Francisco, California, United States
  • Lakeview Shop
  • 1982 to 2006
  • English
I've worked in blacksmithing from 1982 to 2006. I learned from my father and passed what I could on to 1,200 apprentices. The best compliment I ever got was a customer who called me back 20 years later for another job. Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.

More about Walter

Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.

Crafts and trades

What gifts mean to Walter: I'd put gifts toward a new set of tools for the next apprentice.
