When John moved to Portugal he gave me some shoes he had hanging around his shop. I had then hanging around, but they were all rusty, so those shoes and ones I've done myself I cleaned up and got arranged. Many of them are Michael Wildenstein as he lived here for a while. There's also Jim Blurton and some I don't know who did. I've got some of mine in the mix as well. The second pic, both are Wildenstein. The small one is a damascus steel barshoe.
Some shoes I have made from different lads b. Crothers, d. Bazin p. Robbinson, d. Varini, p. Duddy.g. moon.d.duckett to name a few
Going to get some brass name plates like whats on a leather head collar and have to shoe over there name
The three dark ones in the second row are factory shoes. There was a shoe factory in Copenhagen once.
Yes there is. A one piece and two piece. I have a customer who's daughter graduated from vet school this summer. She wants to work on cattle, so I made her a two piece one to hang in her office. I thought it was a fitting gift.
Very nice Mikel. I've made a hobby of snagging shoes at clinics made by the greats. My favorite is a roadster made by Don Davis from Redding, California. It's a museum quality shoe that probably has some imperfection that I can't find. I'm assuming there's something wrong with it because I pulled it from his scrap pile.
Looks like you need a example of primitive blacksmithing . I will send you one of mine ,dont need a stamp you can tell them by the dents.
