David Sowards-Emmerd

I'm the sole proprietor of Drunken Marmot Farm and Forge. I've been making Damascus steel (Pattern-welded steel) and hand-forging it into blades, bottle openers, and other functional art since 2012.

I'm primarily self-taught as my later education was "teaching me to teach myself". As a one-man-shop, I take pride in doing everything in-house throughout the process of forge-welding, forging, grinding, heat treatment, hand-sanding, sharpening, and sheath-making.
