Hammer and Hound Forge is a traditional blacksmith's workshop in Blyth, Northumberland, Uk owned by award winning blacksmith Alex Sowden, who you might have seen before on Sky Arts' "The Prince's Master Crafters", or BBC1's "Make It At Market".
We offer a variety of experiences in metalwork for all skill levels, including tuition in welding and fabrication, forging damascus steel, jewellery techniques and much more!
We produce kits of hand forged woodworking supplies, as well as tools for other crafts, though our stock is often forged on commission.
We also take on larger work, such as forging gates and railings, overthrows, staircases and all variety of ironwork.

"Had a wonderful day making a knife. Alex was a wonderful teacher and helped out at critical moments during my forging experience. At the end of the day I was able to take home a knife which for all the world looked as if it had been made professionally. Can’t get better than that. "
"Great day, Alex was brilliant at demonstrating and helping my son throughout the day. "
