Event Overview

Join this hands-on workshop designed to take you from absolute zero to walking home with a finished knife over the course of three sessions (each session is three hours). Under expert guidance, learn the fundamentals of knife design, forging, and hand finishing your blade.  Not only will you walk away with a finished knife made with your own hands, but also with the skills and confidence to continue creating.  You will follow along with the design shown in photographs.  A good general purpose knife measuring around 9" overall with a roughly 5" blade.  While adding wooden scales to your handles is not included in the scope of these three days, you will have the option to return and add this feature to your piece.  That being said, the handle is also perfectly comfortable left with a forged finish.  

This class could be a great gift for the holidays!

As I continue refining this course, early participants like you will enjoy a 40% off discounted "ground-floor" rate to help me provide the best possible experience for future students.

Prerequisites

Come with good judgement, common sense, and an open mind. This is a fairly physical activity so it may not be well suited to people with injuries or health concerns that would require them to reduce activity.

What's Provided

I'll provide all materials, tools, and fuel for the forge. I will also provide safety glasses and gloves.
