We had a fantastic turnout at our fall hammer-in, with 91 participants hammering metal over the weekend! With 6 forges and 12 anvils, it was a CFI record! We will be actively fundraising leading up to the spring hammer-in to invest in additional equipment for the club so that we can continue to accommodate a growing number of blacksmiths in the Spokane area. Here are some photos of the Fall 2017 Hammer-In:

This is promising to be a record turnout! We had a great year at the fair, handing out almost 500 flyers for the fall hammer-in. We are very excited about the growing interest in blacksmithing, thanks in part to the TV show “Forged in Fire.” Hey, we’ll take it. We look forward to seeing you at the hammer-in! Download the hammer-in flyer here to share it! If you’re on Facebook, you can follow the event here!

Columbia Fire & Iron will be hammering at the Spokane County Interstate Fair again this year, September 8 through 17. We hope you’ll stop by and see us! (This fair photo is from 2013.)

Thanks to everyone who attended our spring Hammer-In at Morgan-Jade Ironworks! These are just a few photos from Sunday.
