You are welcome to stop by. I use stock removal, but have to do simple forging on some things. By simple, I mean a propane/Mapp gas torch, vise anvil, and a ball peen hammer and pliers. I heat treat blades in a 22.5 deep digital controlled Evenheat oven. I like using 01 steel, and that steel is not forge friendly without a good amount of experience, and requires higher heat and more care in forging than the simpler types. I would have to look at a map to find Delray Beach, but I'm guessing it is not real close.
