Hello. I’m Owen Phillips – Artist Blacksmith at Gate Foot Forge.
…and it’s all been something of an accident! A background in Industrial Design and 15 years doing graphics is a strange route into this profession, but here we are. From a childhood spent tinkering with things, a love of machining and metalwork at school and an Industrial Design degree furthering those skills and developing design and visualisation techniques, I was all set up for a career making stuff with my hands. Then I somehow fell into graphics and spent a decade and a half sitting on my arse staring at a screen.
It was only back in 2019 when the hobby – which was clearly a result of an itching desire to make stuff – began to get out of control and accidentally became my job!
I sell and range of regular products which you can find on this website, or please enquire about custom commissions, large and small.

Excellent quality products and superb customer service from Gate Foot Forge.. We ordered 8 hand made kebab skewers a little late for a family members birthday but Owen came to the rescue. After placing the order, I messaged him to explain and he made the items especially quickly for us. He then posted them out to us with no fuss or extra costs. It’s great dealing with small independent manufacturers, many thanks to Owen at the forge and Folksy.

Absolutely beautiful bottle openers from a brilliant seller... Owen even personalised them for me with initials and I can't wait to give them as gifts. Can't recommend enough, and will definitely be shopping from Gate Foot Forge again myself!
