Episode 7: Men of Steel

Sean Lizama is the son of Francisco “Cornbeef” Cruz Lizama, the only living Master Blacksmith in the region. Sean talks about his family’s efforts to preserve the traditional art by teaching students and training apprentices at Lizama’s Forge in the Chamorro Village. He also talks about the traditional Chamorro tools, the days when a man needed a machete if he was thinking about marriage, and how Guam would be a better place if it brought some of its traditional values and culture back to the present day.
