DESIGN, FORGE, GRIND, HEAT TREAT, SCULPT AND SHARPEN
Come and spend some time working alongside me in the forge, heating and beating a piece of high-carbon steel into a one of a kind kitchen knife. Where design and brute force work in tension with each other to create a truly hand crafted tool, that you will be proud to cook with, or gift to a special person in your life.
Previous knife-making experience is not essential, but being comfortable with cutting, grinding, physical labour, and dad jokes is recommended. In order to get the most out of this experience, I encourage people to take on difficult tasks, making the end result ultimately more fulfilling. I am not there to make the knife for you, but I will guide you every step of the way at a pace that’s comfortable and enjoyable for you.
The three classes I run are Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. As the skill levels increase, so does the size of the knife, the complexity and also the time required.
Classes run from 9am to 5pm typically, but the knife leads the timings on the day. I’m advocating for slow and considered, a moment to pause life and create something special.
Classes can be booked below. If you require specific dates that you dont see, then please email via the CONTACT page go get an experienced tailored to you.
