What you'll do
Have you always wondered how knives were made? Spend an exciting day with Cracked Anvil Forge for a practical introduction to knife making, and take home your very own hand-forged chef knife from high carbon steel with a beautiful handle!
In this beginner-friendly class, you will learn how to shape your own knife with a hammer and fire, as well as learn about the forge, anvil and tools used in the creation process.
The knife making course will begin with a brief introduction by Wayne, who will guide you throughout the class. You will learn the basic techniques used in blacksmithing and knife making, as well as how to forge your own blade, heat-treating it, grinding it to shape and attaching it to a pre-made handle.
Don't have any experience with knife making? Don't sweat it, this class is beginner-friendly and Wayne will give you tips and tricks to help you create your very own handmade knife from scratch!
Please note: To complete the knife in one day, we will use pre-made handles and there is no handle construction component of this workshop.
Knowledge required
No prior knowledge required but some fitness required due to the hammering involved. You will need to have the ability to stand up in front of an anvil and lift a 1 kg hammer above your head for some time. This is not suitable for anyone under 16 years of age or with limited mobility.If you feel this may be difficult or would feel more comfortable in a one-on-one situation or may need additional help, please contact Wayne. Specialised classes are available, including NDIS funded.
What you'll get
All required materials on the day and an introduction to knife making by making their own forged chef knife in a day, including attaching a ready-made handle to the blade they forge and grind.
What to bring
Make sure to wear closed-toe shoes, a full-length shirt, and pants in cotton rather than synthetics. Please make sure you do not wear nylon or synthetic clothes or shoes.
Suitable for
Suitable for adults, and kids (minimum 16 years old).
An adult must accompany any attending kids. The adult may observe at the class for free.
This would also be a lovely gift for her, gift for mum, anniversary gift or birthday gift.
