Prerequisite: Any Discovery Class or Letter Opener class
Date: November 26, 2023
Time: 9 AM – 3 PM
Location: Adam’s Forge
In this workshop, Adam’s Forge instructor Kent Lulewich will help equip you for a Viking adventure by teaching you to make a small iron age knife. Not only is this an attractive tool, it’s also a pleasure to make, especially for those with little blacksmithing experience. One of the advantages of this design is that it’s a one-piece knife; you don’t have the extra work of creating and attaching a handle. This enables you to bring home a beautiful and functional finished product.
In this workshop, you’ll practice moving metal to specific dimensions, tapering and turning the beautifully curved handle. You’ll also gain experience in learning to hold awkward shapes while striking them. Hint: using the right tongs helps!
Please note: All workshops are released for member-only early registration for one week before they’re available for general registration. If you’re unable to add this class to your cart, you can wait for general release or join our membership program at any time!
