Manitoba Prospective Knife Maker In Need Of Shop With Some Help To Complete School Assignment

Hey guys, I am new here, and am currently studying out in Sask but live in Winnipeg. I am trying to make a Roman Pugio or dagger for an archaeology assignment and am in need of some help. I am hoping to be able to forge it hear but I am not confident in being able to grind it out and fit the handles because it has a 5 layered handle construction with sheet steel on the outsides of wood with tang in the middle. I was wondering if someone in the Winnipeg area would be able to help me figure it out and use their shop. I know it is a shot in the dark but trying my luck out. I would be willing to pay but as a college student I am a little low on funds. It would be for Spring break in a few weeks. God bless. Justin
