We’ve got a brand new class - Culinary Knife Making with our new woodworking instructor Dan Briechle! The first class will be November 2nd, so sign up soon.
Create a professional quality chef's knife built to last a lifetime, whether for yourself or as a gift. In this hands-on artisan knife making workshop, you'll craft your own custom knife handle using a provided high-quality blade, starting from raw hardwood and working through each step with the care and precision of traditional knife-making techniques. You'll learn essential woodworking skills as you shape, sand, and finish the handle until it fits perfectly in your hand. Join this supportive beginner-friendly workshop, expand your handy DIY skillset, and connect with a community of fellow makers!
