We're happy to announce we’re offering a 1 day knife class. No experience required!
I have a friend who is always telling people about how his dad's built a chef knife over 30 years ago that he still uses to this day! Come make a custom knife with us, make some memories and a knife you can pass onto your children who can tell their friends this same story in 30 years time.
Don’t have enough time for our 2 day class? Cannot travel far for 2 days but still want to make a custom knife? Our 1 day class solves this problem.
In our 1 day class, we will have pre-heat treated stainless steel knife blanks for you to choose from. We will have pre-made custom Savage resin handles for you to choose from.
