- 5/5 from Josiah Daunauda, attended Feb 2026: Hugo and Jamie were great at showing the basic principles of forging.

Plus, you walk away with a pretty cool keepsake!

My wife bought me the knife making class for my birthday, and it was such a good day learning new skills, and coming out with a new knife is even better. The teaching, forge and equipment was top notch easy to understand and very happy to help

Steve offers a rare mix of passion, effervescent energy and a love of people, resulting in memorably experiences where everyone feels welcome... And then... there is Harry, the resident forge hound with an equally sunny disposition who will greet you at the door with a big smile and wet nose!Steve discovered the colourful world of blacksmithing in Belgium, during a midlife sabbatical. Upon return, with two big anvils and a legvice under his belt, he set up a forge in Footscray's picturesque Water's Edge Arts Precinct. In 2013, he initiated Australia's first Blacksmiths Festival, now being held biannually on the banks of the Maribyrnong River and run by a team of volunteers. Steve has a degree in Earth Sciences, studied blacksmithing at the Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, obtained a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment and is currently completing a Certificate in Industrial Blacksmithing at TAFENSW.Apart from teaching, he also offers a well equipped space for members to come together and forge.
