Forged in Canada is not a business but a passion. Don MacKay, a master blacksmith and owner of Forged in Canada, worked for many years as a blacksmith for the Rideau Canal National Historic Site of Canada, an UNESCO World Heritage Site in an 1843 heritage forge. As a blacksmith for this unique site, Don MacKay forged his skills using only traditional techniques and equipment. In 1843 one did not have the luxury of electricity or todays modern equipment. As he does today, the coal fired forge heats his metal up to 2400 degrees Fahrenheit allowing him to manipulate it into any item that is desired. One is only limited by ones imagination.
Forged in Canada is located approximately 3 km from Perth on the Trans Canada HWY. This large forge has enough room and equipment to easy teach 10 -12 students at a town..
