Steel Rose Forge

Good experience. Very knowledgeable and helpful and patient instructor with a passion for his craft. Would recommend.

I highly recommend Steel Rose Forge! We made coin rings for our family Christmas party. Great time for everyone of all ages.

Great place to take classes on Blacksmithing/ Metal work. Classes on making rings are also available.

Bill is an excellent and entertaining teacher. Took the coin ring class. There are several stations set up so that multiple people can be working at once. Highly recommend taking one of his classes.

Great experience all around. Purchased tickets to the railroad spike to knife workshop as a gift for my father and I. Small home style forge with an intimate experience, we had 5 in the workshop with two instructors to assist. They gave us instruction and let us work on our own, always available for tips and assistance. All materials provided for an easy beginner blacksmith experience. They work with your skill level appropriately. Would highly recommend to anyone regardless of skill for a fun and informative experience. Great business to work with!

Bill held a contest on Sunday, 24 May 2020. My son Josh won the contest and won a beautiful “Don’t Tread On Me” “Patriot” silver coin ring. Unknown to me, my son won, and gifted the ring to me. I have never been so honored. I retired from the USAF and then retired from the Mi Dept of Corrections after being severely injured at the prison. As a result of my injuries, I was forced to retire as a Firefighter for our Township. Josh and Bill made arrangements for Bill to present this beautiful ring personally. I’ll be honest, to me, this was as important as someone receiving a Congressional Medal of Honor. The thought, the recognition, the love put into this ring, means that much to me. This is a day I will never forget. Thank you Josh and Thank you Bill.I am honored,Bob Hoag, Tsgt, USAF Ret

I attended the tool class. The instructor knew what he was doing and was great at teaching me! The class is hands on from step one. Not only do you learn how to make a variety of styles of tongs, but you learn how to set / adjust them to the material that you'll be using them with. You are given options to make them YOUR tools and if you're not sure, you learn why it makes a difference and how to decide. I CANNOT recommend this class enough

My husband and I had the COOLEST time here! We learned so much and you could tell bill was passionate about his craft. Incredibly thankful to have found this class!

Robert and Bill are exceptionally knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about their craft. Reasonably priced and very patient with questions.
