Viking Age Blacksmithing Course - One Day Experience

X

Description

Unleash your inner Viking with our Viking Age Blacksmithing course! You will learn to make an early medieval arrowhead and forge, heat treat and handle a Viking seax.

What's included in the price?

All the materials needed for your course are included and I will supply safety equipment. Refreshments such as tea, and coffee will be provided, but bringing a packed lunch is advised. Please wear clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty or getting holes in – cotton t-shirts/tops, jeans and boots are best. Long hair will need to be tied back at all times. The forge is a large open space, and we'll have the doors open to give maximum airflow. Participants are welcome to wear a mask or visor, however given the physical nature of the course we are not making this compulsory as we want to ensure you are comfortable. Hand sanitising is available on arrival, and to use during the day.
