Customer Reviews for the Knife Making Course in the Peak District

An excellent day I joined a small group making bottle openers and I am delighted with the result. The whole day was informative and fun. Hammering metal into shape and learning how to manage the fire to keep the right temperature was really satisfying. I will certainly be back again
