"If you're not cut, burned, and bleeding, you didn't go to work that day."

These are the words of Cowboy, a self-taught bladesmith from the backroads of Bellville, Texas. Inspired by a childhood fascination of King Arthur, The Three Musketeers, and Robinhood, Cowboy has been blacksmithing for over 28 years.

When he's not forging custom knives and swords, Cowboy teaches the Aggie Blacksmith Club about this fiery craftsmanship.
