Forged Chef Set

A hands-on three-day in-depth bladesmithing class in the Iron Grove Tool Co. shop focusing on making, from start to finish, a high carbon steel culinary knife set. Can be based on our house-made culinary knives or custom designs.
 
We'll discuss shop safety, equipment usage and basic metal-movement principles before forging blades from available steels, learning the full heat treatment process for the steel used, grinding/sanding edge geometry specific to the intended use of each knife, crafting handles and sharpening the blades.
 
The number of tools we can complete depends on the student's desired sized and complexity of each within the set. Four blades on average, each comes with a padded case.
 
There is no exact set time limit to the class, we go until we finish the project. All tools, materials and safety equipment will be provided. The student will leave with their own handmade knife set. Contact the shop to schedule.
