Blacksmithing: Knife Day

"On the last day, the Blacksmithing group had our last time in the forge. In the morning we started forming our knives and do this into lunch. After we had lunch we started sanding our knives. We saw what an instructor did to his knives and it was beautiful work. We enjoyed the work and we would love to do it again. We finished sharpening our knives and put a handle on them with paracord by the end of the day. At the end of this week, the group feels like we "nailed it."      -Cam Hayward


You must heat and dip the knives in oil to make them strong.

Then you must grind, sand, and sharpen the knives.

We turned the lights off in the shop to check the color of the metal in order to see that it has "normalized."

Some work throughout our week.
