Forging a Kitchen Knife with Matthew Parkinson. #941-0806. 2 days. August 6&7

The kitchen knife is the most used knife in almost any home. These iconic knives help to create meals for family and loved ones. Well made kitchen knives can last a lifetime and this class will give you the opportunity to create one of your very own. In this two day class students will make their own chefs knives from high carbon steel. All aspects of blade smithing will be covered, from forging the blade to shaping, then heat treating, grinding and polishing, making and fitting a wooden handle and finally, sharpening - with very special attention given to the design and geometry of this kind of knife. This class is intended as an introductory blade smithing class, but some forging experience is helpful.
NOTE:  Hard shoes and long pants are required for student's safety.
