It was awesome to start with three blocks of raw wood and have the hands on woodworking experience to shape that wood into a real table. Robbie was great—patient, helpful, and full of great woodworking insight!

The instructor explained all the steps very clearly. I was a little slower than the other people in the class but he made sure that I knew what was going on still.

Fantastic! Not only is the class well taught but our instructor was also kind, supporting, compassionate and very patient. Without any kind of previous experience we simply had to follow her guidance to create beautiful card holders. Thanks again, I am coming back soon!

It was a terrific experience. The staff had a great attitude— they were lots of fun but also very professional about safety and protocol so we never felt that we were going to be in danger. It was a n excellent experience and we’ve had fun telling our friends all about it.
Create a Legendary Damascus Steel Knife

Our expectations were absolutely exceeded. We had a phenomenal day at a perfect venue with an encouraging team that seemed to be having as much fun as we were. The team at Craftsman gave us a great day--well crafted and well managed to get us from idea to a real damascus steel knife in one awesome day. In particular--the team coached us to do the work with almost everything on our plate. Power tools, band saws, sand belts and even the forge were all available to us and the adventure into craftmanship made the day disappear. We would 100% recommend.
THANK YOU!

I feel so fortunate to have been a part of this wonderful class. Everything about it was perfect.
The experience enabled me to develop a working knowledge of an art form that I have loved forever.
Jessica, our teacher, provided clear instructions, individualized assistance when needed, and an accepting atmosphere that facilitated the successful production of all of the projects.
