Hand-Forged Chopsticks

By Leave a Comment

This week I participated in a @fwtpodcast maker challenge to create chopsticks in the medium of our choice (for me, hand-forged metal obviously). Mild steel; nothing fancy. They’re perhaps a half-inch longer than the disposable wooden chopsticks you get in takeout.

A gallery of hand-forged chopsticks by artist blacksmith John D. Harvey

Finished these hand-forged chopsticks last night from 304 stainless steel. They’ll go to Heidi Jacobs of Whitehall Pottery in Pittsburgh, PA.

On December 19, 2020, I was a vendor/exhibitor at The Steel Yard’s “Holiday Art Market”, and it was really a great event held in very challenging times. All the pandemic precautions were in place: social distancing, mask wearing, hand sanitizer, and staggered entry of patrons to prevent crowding.
