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:Introduction to Chip Carving
DESCRIPTION:This course will introduce students to the traditional craft of chip carving – a type of woodcarving in which a small knife is used to incise decorative floral and geometric designs into basswood or butternut.  The design is created by the removal of small pieces (chips) of the wood. Chip carving is an ancient\, traditional craft. Chip carved plates\, jewelry and keepsake boxes\, trays\, breadboards\, furniture and other items can make wonderful gifts and also decorate the home with traditional motifs. Some previous carving experience is helpful\, but not necessary. Students will learn to carve a variety of practice designs already drawn on a board and may complete a round ornament as well.

SUMMARY:National Curriculum Level 1
DESCRIPTION:The National Curriculum offers a step-by-step progression through three levels of fundamental blacksmithing skills. Certification signifies that a smith has demonstrated mastery of a specific set of skills\, increasing in complexity with each level: Level I (beginner)\, Level II (intermediate)\, Level III (advanced). Level I is the first level of the curriculum and is designed as a guide through beginning blacksmithing techniques. Starting with safety\, Level I then moves into core skills and techniques\, including tapering\, bending\, forging and heat-treating hand tools\, punching and drifting\, basic blacksmithing math\, forging to dimension\, forge-welding\, and creating tenons. It culminates in a final project\, the Gate Latch\, designed to test the student on these skills. Upon completion of Level I\, students will have confidence in the most essential blacksmithing skills and be able to forge a wide variety of projects. The program is designed to provide a solid foundation within the craft. To earn certification\, the student needs to successfully complete the projects and techniques as outlined in the checklist in the Level I Student Packet. This is found on the website abana.org The checklist allows students and instructors to keep track of progress. ABANA will accept the recommendation from an Affiliate?s Education Program Chair or the judgment of a Certified Level I Instructor that qualifies a student as having passed Level I.
