Blacksmithing Question

[raisinbread]

I recently became interested in the art of blacksmithing and tried my hand once or twice making objects (a horseshoe and a nail, woo) and I do like it. One thing that’s been going through my head is making an object out of a meteorite. I checked Google, I asked an art teacher over at the local college and went to my local used bookstore in hopes of finding information about using the material.
No dice.
The only thing I found were mentions of how meteorites were used in the past but not the techniques used for forging and folding the material, modern or otherwise.
Might anyone have any suggestions for reference materials or sites?

[Q.E.D]

From this page:

I assume that one is speaking of the more common Fe/Ni meteorite, not the Moldavite, or Olivine meteorites?? If so, I can answer this question. (I detest entering in the middle of a discussion, and if I am in error, could some on bring me up to speed??).

There are various differences between the meteoric iron and the iron produced here on this planet… these are chemical and crystalline differences… The double Octahedrite pattern of the material plays hell on trying to forge this material…A considerable ammount of “refinement” is needed and you must employ a good quality of terrestrial iron in order to hold the Fe/Ni material together. The Fe/Ni meteoric material does tend to fracture along the crystalline structure when sufficient pressure or impact is applied…This is commonly known as “red short” by blacksmiths…

By employing the iron with the meteorite, you can “hold together” the material being worked and then refine it by the same basic method of drawing and welding as employed with traditional bloom in the process of manufacturing of wrought iron…

I think tamahagane is from meteors.
