Me putting on a forging demo last summer.

| Hello my name is Fuad Accawi. I am pleased to announce that I have attained the rank of Journeyman Bladesmith with the American Bladesmith Society. I am also very happy to add that I was Awarded the George Peck Memorial Award for having the best Journeyman's knife submitted for judging at the 2008 Blade Show in Atlanta. |

My five knives that were submitted for judging.

| Over the years I've held several jobs. I apprenticed in college to a jeweler and within a few years I was an accomplished bench jeweler, and had several trainees under me. Next I moved on to machine work. I apprenticed in a well stocked manual machine shop with lots of good guidance from talented old school machinists. I stayed in machine work for 12 more years and worked for some big companies like Panasonic and General Pattern working on my knives after hours. I was a strict production style knife guy back then. Every job I've ever taken has been one that can help me advance my skills as a knifemaker. I got into forging and making my own Damascus Steel about six years ago and it took me to a whole new level of obsession. Since then I've been concentrating on making my work the very best possible. My in house heat treating experience has come into play in earnest, and it's very satisfying to know that I can make that piece of steel I forged out do anything I want all the way down to the grain structure. I've been making knives full- time for four years. I've been published, I've done many forging & finishing demo's, and I just got done filming a pilot for a network tv show. I love knives and swords and I strive to make the best of the best. Regards, Fuad Accawi Journeyman Smith ABS |
