I will be present with a blacksmithing booth for knifemaking and blacksmithing with children for the Bethaus smithy and my two employers... two jobs at once, tough work for sure, but I look forward to it. If you´re around these parts, you´re right welcome to the smithy! Will be standing next to big brutes with kilts;-), the Clan mac Laren friends of Germany. Already had a nice chat with Jürgen, the head chairman of the club, and we decided there´s more in that in the future;-)... watch this space! The bastard and the poet will drop by, too, and we will also have sort of a hammer - in. I hope to be able to take some pics to provide you with more tales from the fimbul realms;-).
Those are the adventures of Mr. Fimbulmyrk, in bushcraft and blacksmithing, mountainbiking and hiking, reenactment, writing, singing, dancing, stargazing and having a piece of cake and a coffee. Pray have a seat and look around you, but be warned - the forest´s twilight is ferocious at times.
