In March, we wrapped up another great Bladesmithing class at Hagerstown Community College! The students made knives from horseshoes, railroad spikes, and billets of steel. They made unique knives, including kitchen knives, herb choppers and blacksmith knives. They learned the fundamentals of forging blades, hardening, grinding, and hand sanding these beautiful blades. Check out the great work they did!
The classes are students centric, the class meets the students where they are at, and we have several students that have been a part of multiple classes and the class is geared for the level and experience of the student. We will be back at it again May 23rd-July 11th with the Spring series of Basic and Intermediate Blacksmithing, and Fundamentals of Bladesmithing. Send us a message if you are interested in registering and learning this age old, time honored tradition and craft, or just advancing your skills, learning to create beautiful metalwork by hand forging steel!
