Intermediate | TBD Materials and Studio Fees*
Knives with an integrated bolster (where the bolster is forged out of the same material as the blade) are prized by chefs for their strength and balance. This design provides a unique challenge for the bladesmith and a great degree of satisfaction when completed. In this 5-day workshop, participants will complete a 7” Chef Knife with an integrated bolster. All aspects of knife making will be covered from forging to sharpening.
Prerequisites: A beginner blacksmithing or beginner bladesmithing class would be a great prerequisite for this.
*Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in.
