Whether you're a survival student wanting to make your own gear, someone interested in metal working, or just looking for something fun to do for a week... this class is for you. Students start with high carbon tool steel and are taught the process of heating and shaping a knife using traditional blacksmithing tools. Finally we make beautiful and functional handles of reclaimed and rescued exotic wood pieces. All students will end the class with their very own fixed blade belt knife. Check our photos page for examples of student work! Perfect lead into our sheath making and leather working class.
