An interview with Forged in Fire Champion, J. Alex Ruiz!

We talk about his history in blacksmithing and bladesmithing, beginner's tips, and we dig deeper into his episode of #forgedinfire! Alex was a lot of fun, and we had a blast talking with him. Hopefully we'll get to do more with him in the future!  Find and follow Alex:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/volundr_forge/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/jr602908  Disclaimer: We have zero experience with bladesmithing and knife-making, but we really dig this show. And we are seriously considering building our own home forge!    SEND US A VOICE MESSAGE: https://anchor.fm/fans-of-the-forge/message Enter our 1000 Subscriber giveaway here: https://www.instagram.com/p/BwEpwq4hjUd/ Also available on YouTube, just search for Fans of the Forge!
