At Forge & Blade, you're more than the next haircut on the clock. We believe good barbering takes skill, attention to detail, and enough time to do the job right.

We pair the atmosphere of the traditional American barbershop with the precision of today's styles. From a clean skin fade to a traditional flat top, we take pride in the work that walks out our door.

Precision side-profile fade and full beard at Forge and Blade
Old school roots. Modern standards.

Every detail
matters.

We don't believe every head should get the same haircut. We listen, take our time and focus on a result that's right for the person in the chair.

Restored vintage barber chairs. Traditional techniques. A welcoming place for conversation. And cuts that look just as good leaving the shop as they do in the chair.
