Custom Bladesmith. Create your own Damascus Knife
For those interested in learning this craft. I offer 1 on 1 private lessons. I will meet with you first to understand your goals, then tailor content to match your goals. It can be as simple making a small knife, a damascus knife, or even a rose for someone special. We will even cover the leather work if that is what you are interested in. All tools and materials are supplied except for personal protective clothing.
I will work with your time frame and together we can delve into the impossible! Contact me to create your personal course.
