Axes - Forge Your Own!
This axe is perhaps the most iconic tool in history. Still widely used today in the “modern” world, the axe is still very much a tool for everyday use. In this class, students with a bit of forging experience will be working with each other and Jeremiah to make an axe of their own. The axe will be of medium size or smaller and perfect for anything from hiking, making kindling and even carving. We will be forge welding, slitting, drifting and shaping both high carbon and mild steel. Seasoned beginners and up will find this class challenging and fun. Commercial handles will be provided. Forging hammers will be available for purchase.
