Blacksmithing Art Class at GAC

Frontier Knife & Hatchet Workshop
Instructor: Mace Vitale
Adult On Campus Workshop
open to all levels
September 25 - September 29
Monday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

In this 5 day intensive workshop, students will make a frontier style knife with a wood handle. Next steps are to hot punch a hole through 1/4" round stock to forge a hatchet that will then be fit with a hickory handle. Students must be able to swing a sledge hammer.

Students will need safety glasses, leather work gloves,(welding gauntlets not needed) and should wear jeans, a non-flammable cotton shirt and/or jacket, and closed-toed boots or leather shoes. Our forge is an outdoor building that is only semi-enclosed; please dress accordingly. For full-day workshops, please bring a lunch to be on the safe side, as there may or may not be time to get food during a lunch break.
