About Hillbilly Forge
About Hillbilly Forge
At the heart of our forge, iron is shaped by fire, hammer, and hand.
We are a small family-run blacksmith shop creating hand-forged ironwork for hearth, home, and ritual. Our work ranges from Viking and pagan-inspired jewellery to cookware, fireside tools, bushcraft tools, outdoor cooking equipment and decorative ironware - all crafted by hand using traditional blacksmithing techniques. We also create bespoke commissioned pieces and offer blacksmith experience sessions for those who would like to step into the forge and try the craft for themselves.
