From the sawdust floors of Krugersdorp to the boardrooms of Johannesburg, Forged in Grit is the extraordinary true story of Barry Philip Lok, founder of William Tell — a company that rose from a small joinery in the 1970s to a publicly listed manufacturing empire. Told with unflinching honesty and remarkable detail, this memoir traces three decades of vision, innovation, and hard-won success — and the devastating collapse that followed. It is a story of triumph and loss, brotherhood and betrayal, and one man’s relentless pursuit of independence against the forces of big business and corporate power.
