Hand forged blacksmith items by Kirk Dexter

23/10/2026

Brilliant day yesterday collecting my associate award at carpenters hall in London. A perfect end to the perfect first season for me. Want to say a massive thanks to all those who have supported me, especially my amazing wife. In the words of a good friend “we move onto the next”

I haven’t advertised this much, but I have a sales page which now has a few items for sale on it. Over the next few weeks I will be adding a lot more so if you want to get that early Christmas present now is the time.

Forging leaves on the power hammer. Love forging leaves as every one is different in an organic way.

Battle axe forging this week amongst other things, love the downward sweep on the blade ( beard) on the Viking style axes.

Just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has helped and supported me through my first competition season in 30 years. Two years ago I didn’t know what to do as I was lost in my career, but with the opportunity and support of certain people I’ve found the love for work again (you all know who you are).
never could I ever have dreamed I’d be posting a photo like this, but I’m unbelievably proud of where I’ve come and looking forward to the future.
All that have been there this year, I think your all bloody amazing , so thank you 🙏
Roll on 2027

This Sunday was the last competition in the season where I managed to scoop a 1,2,3,4,5&6th place, and show reserve champion.
As I got reserve that has pushed me up to 3rd place overall in the static class in the NBCC competition circuit for 2026 I couldn’t be happier (hence photo) 🏆😂🕺
