Did you forge this blade yourself or build from a blank?

this ones built from a blank , most are stock removal , and even the blanks get some refinement . haven`t owned a forge in 35 years , they frown on such when you live in an apartment ! I have a collection of metal and wood working tools in a cousins garage , he lets me do my work there !
