Hand Forged in East Tennessee

The Forge Provisions story starts where the sidewalk ends and the grit begins.

By day, I’m a video editor. My world is measured in frames, pixels, and the glow of a dual-monitor setup. I spend hours perfecting stories in a digital space where everything can be undone with a keystroke and nothing has physical weight.

But there’s a limit to what a screen can give you.

Forge Provisions started because I needed to feel the friction again. I wanted a tool that didn’t require a charger or a cloud backup—something that could survive a trek through an East Tennessee sinkhole or a day on the workbench and come out looking better for the wear.

I built the first Forge Logs for myself. I wanted 110lb "Iron-Weight" cardstock that felt substantial and industrial steel staples that wouldn't give up. I wanted a notebook that was unyielding - a physical record of a life lived away from the "undo" button.

Every notebook that leaves this workshop is hand-assembled and hand-trimmed by me. I’m not just making stationery; I’m building a home for your ideas, your blueprints, and your stories.

Whether you're in the shop or on the ridges, these tools are built for the build and marked by the journey.

Stay Sharp. From the ridges,
