About the experience

Bladesmithing courses in Cheshire! Learn to hand-forge your very own knife in these one-day workshops at the Ellesmere Port blacksmith’s forge. Guided by artisan blacksmith Alex, a skilled craftsman in traditional forging techniques, you'll focus on creating functional and decorative metal knives. With a maximum of four students per class, you’ll receive personalized instruction as you transform a steel billet into a handcrafted knife.
