The price for 1 person is £285 and £525 should 2 of you decide to come together. I don't have groups so, if you are coming on your own, it's a one-to-one course.
​You can also purchase a Gift Voucher which will be valid for a year from the date of purchase.
The default steel for the blade is a farrier's rasp or leaf spring. If you'd like to make a damascus/pattern welded knife on this course, let me know and I'll make a billet before your day. There is a surcharge of £70 or £110 for 2.
I try to be as flexible as possible so, suggest a few good dates to suit you and I'll see how they fit in the diary but, do think 3 months ahead.
