MEQUON, Wis. (CBS 58) -- The art of blacksmithing dates back to around 1500 BC. The profession forged over centuries and eventually replaced by industrial machinery might have faded from its peak in the middle ages, but is still practiced today if you know where to look.
On CBS 58 Sunday Morning, Cearron Bagenda visited Storm Cloak Forge in Mequon to meet a blacksmith who’s still doing it all by hand.
