Blacksmith Made Knife Class
- Learn to hand forge a knife from a 1/2 inch round piece of High Carbon Steel -
We take you step by step through the process of hand forging a knife from a round bar. With this class you will learn the techniques needed to make a knife out of any high carbon piece of steel you find. This is no 'grind out a knife' class but a TRUE blacksmith made hand forged and hand shaped knife!
The class is in easy to watch sections. They each detail a blacksmithing technique that way you can watch one section and go practice then come and watch the next.
This video does not go over handle making. It does teach you how to make a full tang knife just not how to put the wood on it. We will have another video lesson on handle making coming in the future.

This is the first version of the class. While filming the audio stopped working so we had to add voice over and a lot of the footage was not usable, it was a sad discovery. Don't get me wrong, this lesson covers everything you need to know! It just doesn't have the three camera angle, funny jokes, and my pretty face in it. But never the less we keep forging onward and thus we are currently working on the second version. We wanted to get at least a class out before the beginning of the Christmas season. You will have complete access to the newest version no matter when you purchased the class.
