About Upland Forge
Knoxville · established 2006
Our story
Upland Forge started in Knoxville in 2006 with a straightforward goal: knoxville blacksmith shop forging railings, fireplace screens, and custom entry gates.
We stay intentionally small so clients work with the same people from first call to finished job. That consistency matters more than a flashy pitch deck.
If you are comparing options, ask us hard questions. We would rather earn your trust slowly than promise what we cannot deliver.
