This course involves the use of hot forges and metal. You must be prepared to work safely among others in a hot environment. Competency in the use of hand files, hammers, pliers and other grip tools, and basic power tools such as drills and angle grinders is required.
Create a hand-forged, hand-finished knife using simple tools. Instruction will cover forging, heat-treating and finishing, as well as assembling a handle using a variety of natural materials.
