Will be having their annual conference in Mid September.
Two very fine bladesmiths will be demonstrating at this annual conference in mid September and I'm trying to get the word out.
Here's one link: http://www.metalsmith.org/act/index.htm#Conferences
Mick Maxen is from the UK. He's done some blade reproduction work for the British Museum and has some of the best old world style pattern welded mosaic work that blends into fine art outside blades as well. Here's a link to a British site with a bit of his representative work.

If anyone doesn't know the work of Howard Clark, I don't know how to tell them, but he hasn't given a formal demonstration in a long long while.
