[trytops]

hi guys

first i would like to apologise for writing in english on a polish forum but my polish is very weak.i live in poland now . my friend made this account for me . i am sort of new to bladesmithing, in the past i did read books "the craft of the japanese sword" etc...
i need help in finding materials to start forging ..
mostly i need an anvil and some metal to work with . any idea where i can find a shop where i can order them? and second most important thing is where do i buy coke or coal ? . building the forge will be easy .

thanks

Hi trytops
where do you live in Poland?
in my town I can buy coke near to the train station, maybe it's similar in your town/ city.

Hello.

Try to find anvil and other tools on allegro. (search for kowadło=anvil, młotek=hammer, cęgi, kleszcze, szczypce = tongs) It is Polish equal of ebay. It is hard or impossible to find anvil on a junk yard in Warsaw. I know because I tried myself. If you are from Warsaw I can meet you and show on a map where you can find some junk yards.

And you can find good steel here: http://www.stalserwis.com.pl

And about coal try here ul. Czereśniowa 98, lok. 231,Warszawa

So tritops, can you write me anything about location your forge ? Is it far away from city centre ?

I'm curious news cause I attend to visit in Warsaw at this summer and don't rule out to visit in couple places.

Regards

ps: Are you Japanese ?
