"My wife bought this as a birthday present as something different to try my hand at and quite simply what an excellent day, well worth every penny. ? Graham and David were excellent tutors and as we were only a small group we all had plenty of their expert guidance and tuition every step of the way as well as helping out with anything that we were struggling with if necessary. I can highly recommend this course, as well as Graham and David. Thank you both very much for a great day at Vlakvark Forge.?"

"I cannot recommend this course highly enough to anyone who is looking to try something different or is interested in smithing or knives. A really relaxed environment and incredibly hands on from the start. Graham was a great tutor... demonstrated (on his own piece, not yours), then perfectly guided our small group. Never interfering or taking over, always encouraging and only getting involved if things were going wrong. Once corrected it was straight back to you again. Everything was there - small group (so lots of attention), plenty of tools (so never waiting) and no pressure (so you could work at your own pace)... even the lunch was great!. I've never done anything like this before, but was totally delighted (and proud) with the knife I walked away with. For the cost, quality of the course and my final knife this is by a distance the of the best craft course I have done - thank you Graham."

"Just had an amazing day on this course with my 16 year old son and his mate. Graham and Dave were brilliant at guiding us through the process and helping us to get our knives just right. It was a really personal experience which we will all remember for years to come. Lunch was fab too!"

"Friends and I have just spent the day on this course and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Graham is an excellent tutor, with a down to earth style and attitude. Safe to say we will be returning for more courses. Love the knife I forged :-)"

"I have always wanted to have a go at bladesmithing, like many especially after watching forged in fire recently and was lucky enough to get myself on this course last week. Well, not as easy as it looks! but had an absolutely brilliant time, Graham was extremely knowledgeable about the craft and explained all the stages from start to finish, I tend to ask a lot of questions with everything I do and Graham was more then happy to answer with demonstrations. The course was at a nice steady pace which gave me the opportunity to watch listen and and put in to practice what I was being shown. Not once was I told I hadn’t done something correctly but was shown how to correct and move the metal which gave a lot of confidence. Great lunch provided in a really nice location and endless coffee on what was a frosty morning ?. On top of this I actually managed to creat a knife to take home that I am extremely proud of. I really can highly recommend this course to anyone that wants to have a crack at making a knife and learn some of the skills required to bladesmith. Will definitely be booking in again !"
