In this two day class, we will forge and complete a western style chef's knife. Students will forge their blades from 1084 high carbon steel, to a finished length of about eight inches. After heat treatment and grinding, students will shape handles from natural wood and fit them to their blades. You will leave the course with a fully finished and sharpened chef's knife.

  • There is a $4 registration fee included in tuition.

    Members will have the $4 fee deducted from the tuition.
    There is a $78.00 materials fee included in the tuition.
