Be it traditional, contemporary or an idea seen in a dream, we'll give if our best to make it your best.
Not trying to be the cheapest, trying to be the best.
A lot of pride goes into every detail.

Bartering is the original currency, along with the quality, you're going to like our shop rate. Decades have gone into being frugal, a lifetime into quality.
Back in the day, reclaimed steels and time honored skill were the rule of the roost, I was raised spark-testing 'salvage, save or scrap' steels. Today we can order just about any steel you can imagine, and have the technical data for that steel quicker faster then it takes to order it.
I sort of miss the old days, I'll never totally give up working with reclaimed steels. Here is a pritchel forged from a section of a Ram truck suspension. Square hole punched in a cold horseshoe.
My Grandfather Louis P. Salonek ran his smithy on the west bank of the Crow River in central Minnesota.
His motto for me as a small boy was "Can't say can't" , that might have made being a boy harder, it sure made being a man easier. Giving me that motto was a very important gift.
Forged and heat treated high carbon tool steel, tools and accessories.
