SUMMARY:Forging a Chef's Knife
DESCRIPTION:This class is taught by renowned instructor and the very first winner of History Channel’s Forged in Fire\, Matthew Parkinson. The chef’s knife is the most used knife in almost any home. These iconic knives help to create meals for family and loved ones. Well-made kitchen knives can last a lifetime and this class will give you the opportunity to create one of your very own. In this two-day class students will make their own chef’s knife from high carbon steel.  All aspects of bladesmithing will be covered\, from forging the blade to shaping\, then heat treating\, grinding and polishing\, making and fitting a wooden handle and finally\, sharpening – with very special attention given to the design and geometry of this kind of knife. This class is intended as an introductory bladesmithing class\, but some forging experience is helpful.

SUMMARY:Blacksmithing 102B: Using Jigs and Making Batches
DESCRIPTION:Hooks are one of the most useful things a new blacksmith can make. Russ started off making them as practice pieces but found that they get used wherever they end up. They are used in many projects\, and this makes them an excellent stepping stone for learning how to manufacture things in bulk. We will start by making hooks by hand with just the hammer and anvil. After that\, students will use various tools and jigs to speed up production. The goal is to produce 5 matching hooks. This class is intended for students who have taken a 101 class and understand the basics of forging and how to manage a coal fire.

SUMMARY:Blacksmithing 102C: Make Like a Tree
DESCRIPTION:Nature has been a source of artistic inspiration for thousands of years. Leaves have been a part of decorative blacksmithing for a long time\, and there are many different types of leaves one can make. This class is intended for students who have taken a basic/beginner class and who understand the basic techniques and concepts. We will start by making leaves with just the hammer and anvil\, and then begin using tools like chisels and decorative punches.

SUMMARY:Intro to Toolmaking
DESCRIPTION:Blacksmiths have always made their own tools and it’s a skill every smith should know. This class will work with carbon steel to make a punch and a chisel that will be hardened at the working end and soft at the striking end. Each student will leave with two usable tools and the understanding of how to create more.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Traditional Joinery
DESCRIPTION:Take that next step in your blacksmithing journey by learning traditional joinery work. The project is a fun\, simple forgiving project where students will learn several processes: traditional corners\, collars\, tenons\, rivets\, slitting/drifting\, beveled scrolls\, fish-tail scrolls and regular scrolls where you will also learn how to determine the lengths of steel required to achieve a finished dimension. Learning these processes will enable you to move forward to projects limited only by your imagination!

SUMMARY:Introduction to Traditional Joinery
DESCRIPTION:Take that next step in your blacksmithing journey by learning traditional joinery work. The project is a fun\, simple forgiving project where students will learn several processes: traditional corners\, collars\, tenons\, rivets\, slitting/drifting\, beveled scrolls\, fish-tail scrolls and regular scrolls where you will also learn how to determine the lengths of steel required to achieve a finished dimension. Learning these processes will enable you to move forward to projects limited only by your imagination!

SUMMARY:Intermed. Blacksmithing - Forging Transitions & Set-Ups for Various Shapes
DESCRIPTION:Forging a bar of stock into a particular shape\, be it a cooking utensil\, latch or other items requires two things. First\, you need to know how much material is necessary to create the shape\, the “set-up”\, and second\, how to forge out that shape\, the “transition”\, ensuring that they are both graceful and structurally sound. This class will explore traditional 18th century forging techniques with an emphasis on set-ups and transitions by forging a smiple spatula for hearth cooking as well as a more complicated key-hole spatula. Later we will explore latch making with the same emphasis. And lastly\, finishing of your work by filing it to bring out its beauty and add details. Many examples of latches and hearth cooking utensils will be available for students to examine. Students should have a wrking knowledge and bility to manage a coal fire\, basic hand forging knowledge and the ability to forge weld.

SUMMARY:A Taste of the Forge
DESCRIPTION:Would you like to try blacksmithing\, and get a taste of the craft? Join instructor Steve Gurzler for 3 weekday evenings to learn how to operate a coal forge to bring metal to incandescent heat and shape it with hammer in hand. This class will use the Artist Blacksmiths Association of North America (ABANA) curriculum to teach the basics of blacksmithing. Students can expect to create 2 or more projects during the 3 evenings. Class size is limited to ensure all can advance at their own pace.
