Hello,
This is Julia, I am an Ojai Studio Artist
www.ojaistudioatrists.org . I have been lucky enough to take classes from Jason Hawk and am organizing the class. It will be held at my home in Ojai. We will need a full class to run it so please pass on the information to anyone you think would be interested.
Hand-Made Knife - Forging Class
Ojai, CA
July 10th & 11th
10:00am - 6:00pm (lunch included)
The following Monday is available for private instruction (limited to 4)
In this two-day workshop you will learn the skills of knife making from certified master blade smith Jason Hawk. Jason will provide all the tools and materials for you to forge your own steel blade knife or tool.
Jason Hawk has been forging greatly sought-after blades for 20 years out of high quality steel and found materials and teaches how easy, inexpensive and fun it is to forge your own tools that will last a lifetime. Jason is a master blade smith and a primitive skills instructor. A fourth-generation blacksmith, Jason learned these skills from his grandfather and father, who was a Special Forces Instructor. By age 10,Jason was skilled at making traps, spears, bows, and knives, and received his Colorado guiding license at 16.
On the first day Jason will teach you how to construct several styles of forges out of simple materials. You will also begin the process of creating your own knife. The second day will be focused on forging of blades for tools, weapons and knives. You will have the opportunity to forge your own blade and leave with an understanding of how to do it on your own. Each person will get hands on experience and guidance in creating their own finished piece.
We have reserved a third day with Jason to be available for advanced instruction. This will only be available to a few people so let us know at signup time if you are interested.
$165 for two days of intensive instruction
