Metal-working is in my blood. My father is a blacksmith so I have always been around metal and the art of shaping it. After High School I decided to go to a technical school vs. pursuing a more traditional higher education path. So after a couple of years of restoring fiberglass and wood yachts I attended Wyo-tech where I earned a business associates in collision refinishing and street rod technology. That gave me the knowledge necessary to get started in sheet metal fabrication and customizing. The street rod world was an excellent stepping stone to hone some of those skills. I worked in one of Vermont’s top restoration shops where we did everything from painting Audis to Ferraris to full frame off street rodding. I have always been good at making custom tools and try to excel at accomplishing the task at hand. So after spending a few years in the Bujinkan Kongoshin dojo, and getting a reputation for building quality weapons and armor I decided to offer the same products and skills to others.

My past has taught me to build quality long lasting objects and I enjoy the challenge of making that happen.
