Make Your Own Utility Knife (Kitchen Knife)

Learn the basics of making a small kitchen petty knife ideal for everyday food prep at home.

15 years and older only. 18 or older encouraged.

Prior forging experience required.

There must be at least three days between your Day 1 and Day 2 class, and Day 1 must come before Day 2. 

Important Notes:

• Vaccination is REQUIRED for all classes. There are no exceptions to this.
• You must print and sign this waiver form, one per participant, prior to the class

What to wear and bring:

• You MUST wear a mask to and from the shop - ideally a respirator. As soon as you arrive please sanitize or wash your hands - we will then review other safety protocols in person. If you do not feel well play it safe and stay home!
• Only wear natural fiber clothing, no synthetics or blends. Jeans and leather shoes are a requirement. I recommend bringing a T-shirt and a long sleeve shirt. Make sure your pant cuffs go over the tops of your shoes, and there are no holes in any of your clothing. 
• Wear only clothing that you can part with, for it may be destroyed. You will not get to forge if you do not follow these rules.
• If you have your own respirator please bring it, otherwise you will be supplied with one (that you will be responsible for bringing to and from class).
• When transporting knives please use a knife roll/case, or tightly wrap it in a towel, and make sure to put a small luggage lock on your bag.
