Our knife-making courses offer an immersive opportunity to explore the art of traditional bladesmithing. Working with high-carbon steel, participants will hand-forge both the blade and a rat-tail style handle, guided by expert instruction throughout the process.
Once forging is complete and your bespoke, heirloom-quality knife has cooled, you will be introduced to the precision finishing stage. This includes carefully grinding a bevel edge using our Engineering Shop Master belt grinder. Your finished knife is then yours to take home, ready for final sharpening and years of use.
A hearty lunch, all snacks and drinks are all included, along with materials and fuel for the coke fires.
You can reschedule your experience day anytime up to two weeks before you are due to attend by getting in touch with us via our contact page.
In the unlikely event you wish to cancel, 50% of your booking cost will be refunded. Please get in touch via our contact page to cancel.
Gift voucher are non-refundable.
