Black Oak Forge is a one-man’s smithy, established in Schijndel, the
Netherlands, since 2010. Before that I’ve been blacksmithing for a long time,
but in a bit unconventional way; in a reconstruction of a prehistoric village
of the ironage. There, the love for this beautiful craft was born, the spark
ignited the flame which was burning already deep inside of me for a long
time. 

During working at that museum I followed an education for blacksmithing in
Veghel, attended by Jos de Graaf. After succesfully  completing this
education I started teaching blacksmithing in Veghel myself, which I’m still
doing today.  Besides this work I’ve demonstrated the craft of
blacksmithing on many historical events with a medieval smithy, and I’m still
doing that nowadays. There, I have a platform where I can present and sell my
work.

Black Oak Forge is specialized in hand- and utility-tools, made from steel,
completed with natural materials as wood and leather. Made to use, but also
with attention to the esthetics. The glowing, uncompromising steel is shaped
between anvil and hamer to the desired shape. By paying much attention to the
aspect of finishing the materials, a beautiful contrast will appear between the
roughness of the forged steel and the delicate details. Each product is unique and with it’s own
soul.
