Bladesmithing Course
Learn to forge, grind, heat-treat, and finish functional knives from raw steel using professional bladesmithing techniques. This course covers everything from metallurgy and forge setup to advanced pattern-welded steel and handle construction. Whether you are a complete beginner or a hobbyist ready to level up, you will build real skills that produce real blades.

What will I learn?
You will start with steel selection, forge setup, and workshop safety, then move into hammer technique, blade profiling, and bevel grinding. From there, you will master heat treatment — hardening, quenching, and tempering — so your blades hold an edge and resist breaking. You will learn to hand-sand and finish hardened steel, then build complete handles using wood, G-10, Micarta, and natural materials. Advanced sections cover pattern-welded steel, differential hardening with a visible hamon, and integral bolster forging. You will also get into sheath making, shop layout, and the basics of running a custom knife business.
