The Next Knife Making Weekend Will Be Held in the spring of 2020
Forged in Fire fan-favorite Robby Bowman will be leading a group of eight adults in making a useful knife out of repurposed railroad spikes and horseshoes, for this two-day weekend workshop. Students will have access to Turtle Island's outdoor blacksmith's classroom - all tools and materials are provided. The event is open to a small group of adults only. (Special exceptions can sometimes be made for mature minors who are accompanied by a chaperoning parent.) To register for this workshop, students are required to have already taken a basic blacksmith class.
A weekend workshop is an all-inclusive experience where we offer romantic hand-hewn rustic lodging, and serve three hot meals a day in our outdoor kitchen to all participants at no additional cost.
The Knife-Making Workshop is particularly special because we will have four TV personalities all gathered at Turtle Island Preserve that weekend. Saturday evening will feature live music, hand-crafted fine foods, and a fireside talk with our very own Eustace Conway.
