The Story Behind Seven Shields Forge
Vincent
Lead Blacksmith
The seed of blacksmithing was planted in me long before I ever understood what it meant. Some of my earliest memories are of standing in my grandfather’s shop, reaching up to turn on the blower of his old Buffalo forge, and gripping a hammer that was far too heavy for my hands. I didn’t know it then, but something was already taking hold.
As I grew older, I learned that this path ran deeper than just curiosity—I had the opportunity to carry on a legacy as a 9th generation smith. That realization didn’t just spark interest, it lit a fire. One that pushed me to study the craft, to respect it, and to chase mastery with everything I had.
In November of 2019, that fire became something real. Alongside one of my closest friends, I opened the doors to our own shop. What started as a dream quickly turned into a purpose—to forge not just tools, but a culture. A place where the craft could be shared, where others could learn the same way I once did, and where the tradition of blacksmithing could continue to live, heat after heat.

I think just about everyone has a moment in childhood where they look up to someone close to them and decide, that’s who I want to be. For me, that was my dad. I’d run around with toy tools, wearing his work uniform, dead set on the idea that one day I’d be working on HVAC units just like him.
But life has a way of shifting things. As the years went on, I realized that path wasn’t mine—and if I’m being honest, I had no clear idea what was. Just a lot of questions and no real direction.
Then somewhere along the way, I crossed paths with a guy in high school who spent his time swinging a hammer against a block of steel… over and over again. Most people would’ve thought nothing of it. But something about it stuck.
After graduation, two guys with no clear roadmap—but the same pull toward the fire—decided to take a shot. We brought our restless minds together and built something from nothing.
What started as uncertainty turned into purpose. A business rooted in the idea that blacksmithing is more than just shaping steel—it’s about building something lasting. A culture. A place where knowledge is shared, skills are earned, and anyone willing to listen can step up to the forge and learn.
