About Wheeler Forge

A traditional blacksmith shop nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains just west of beautiful downtown Millers Creek, NC. Wheeler Forge was established at this locale in the early 1990s. We specialize in traditional ironwork found in the early hearth & home. With fire, hammer, anvil and steel we forge our offerings for discerning clientele who appreciate the time-honored methods and traditions of producing hand-forged ironwork. We come from a long line of good 'ol boys and strong women who survived as yeoman farmers. We were skilled makers by necessity. We have made furniture, chairs, buggies, carriages, wagons, fiber work tools and farm implements; we were blacksmiths and machine tool makers, rough and finish carpenters, coopers, sawyers and inventors. One line of our heritage has been traced back to the north side of Hadrian's Wall by a Daughter of the American Revolution. We have a Coat of Arms and a Tartan.Read their story
