More about me
About Me
Hi, I’m Sam – an award-holding Associate of the Worshipful Company of Blacksmiths (AWCB) and a proud award-winning competition blacksmith, having taken first place in the live competition at the North Somerset Show two years running.
With over 20 years of experience in metalwork, I bring a wealth of knowledge in both blacksmithing and fabrication, producing work to the highest standard. My skills cover a wide range of projects – from specialist tooling to decorative pieces for the home and garden – and I take pride in turning ideas into beautifully crafted, lasting creations.
My Craft & Passion
Blacksmithing isn’t just my profession – it’s my passion. I’m a keen competitor, regularly taking part in blacksmithing events across the country and helping to promote this incredible craft. Every project I take on is a chance to showcase the artistry, tradition, and precision that blacksmithing represents.
My Journey
20 years ago, I began my career as a welder-fabricator, specializing in pipe welding and fabricating a wide variety of items.
14 years ago, I discovered blacksmithing – and I’ve been dedicated to mastering it ever since.
I spent 6 years teaching welding and blacksmithing to the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME), passing on my skills to the next generation.
Today, while I continue to work full-time in welding, my dream is to transition fully into blacksmithing.
When you commission a piece from me, you’re not only getting a unique, handcrafted item made to the highest standard – you’re also supporting my journey toward becoming a full-time blacksmith.

Whether you’re looking for bespoke decorative ironwork, specialist tools, or a one-of-a-kind piece for your home or garden, I’d love to bring your ideas to life. Get in touch, and let’s create something extraordinary together.
