A Small Town Bladesmith
Yellow Rose Forge is a family of creators. We specialize in knives, but we really just love making things, and we love making things with fire, steel, and hammers. We'd love to make something for you.
Welcome to the ForgeYellow Rose Forge is more than a job. For us, this is a ministry, a way of life, and a way of exercising our creative talents.
Whether you are looking for a custom chef's knife, a decorative wall mount, or a full set of chuckwagon tools, we are more than happy to serve you. Billy is the lead bladesmith, and Joseph makes a lot of our decorative pieces. If it's not something we can make, we have friends who can, and we'll happily put you in touch with them. We also teach classes and sell unique items we create in our spare time. |

Isaac and Joseph "Homedog" Salyers
Early forging by "The Boys"
Isaac and Joseph bring what Billy can't to the forge...youth. These guys are a force to be reckoned with. What they lack in age, they more than make up for with the immeasurable wealth of knowledge that all teenagers seem to have. Isaac is currently serving our country, so Joseph takes the lead in the young guy dept.
Age 35 (combined)
