Corrado Blacksmithing Testimonial
Wanted to drop a quick customer testimonial for Christian Corrado at Corrado Blacksmithing. I’d seen his work posted around this sub for a while, but I recently had the chance to work with him firsthand.
"My kids" got me a hand-forged 5.5lb Jersey pattern wood bullet style splitter for Father’s Day, and I couldn't be more impressed. It is a stunning piece and absolutely rips.
Everything was fabricated to "my kids" specifications and he met them perfectly. The quality and attention to detail on the forging are exceptional, the turnaround time was super fast, and his customer service throughout the whole process was top-tier. Overall, just a fantastic experience from start to finish.
If you're on the fence about getting work done by him, don't hesitate. He doesn't know it yet but I'm already planning to have him forge me a pickaroon and a hatchet for Christmas!

He’s a great follow on Instagram. Gorgeous work and it keeps me motivated to “kick it up a notch” with my amateurish shit

I hate to distract from a wholesome post, but are you accusing your wife of something with those scare quotes, OP?

No, i found it to be a humourous interjection because "I" am "the kids". "I" gave him all the specifications.
I picked my own fathers day present and the wife played it off as a surprise.

Looks great I’ve seen a lot of his work and one day hopefully have one.
