Kristopher Skelton

Greetings all. In 2002 I lit my first forge. I used a 3# hammer as an anvil, and worked the metal with an 18oz ball peen. I still use that hook to lift the lid off of my Dutch Oven.

I don't have a particular period that I work in, I'm definitely eclectic. I do enjoy working on projects for mountain man reenactors, campers, and making ornamental works as requested.

In august 2011 I was accepted to a graduate program in public history at WSU to study westward expansion in America (1803-1850). I completed my master's degree in May 2013.
