Forge Experience Days
Each Forge Experience Day is customised to suit you, and we'll be in touch before the day to discuss and plan the day to suit.
​What to Expect:
-
Hands-On Workshop: Feel the thrill of working with fire and metal as you shape hot iron and steel.
-
One-of-a-Kind Creations: Craft something truly unique and personalised during this immersive workshop.
-
Project Options: Whether you are looking for hardcore instruction on specific techniques to help you on your blacksmithing journey, or you want to learn about the history and heritage of the craft; or you just want to have some fun and bash some hot iron - its all ok with me! Maybe you just want to see how its done and go home with something sharp and shiny, that's fine too.
