The Main Event

Unleash your inner blacksmith with this Two and a Half Day Blacksmithing Experience! Imagine yourself stepping into the world of a blacksmith, hammering away on a glowing piece of metal.

If you’re drawn to the thrill of medieval craftsmanship, this immersive workshop could be the one for you, as you'll have the chance to create a masterpiece that you can truly call your own. Opt for the swordsmith course and learn how to craft a longsword from start to finish. From shaping the blade to assembling the cross guard and pommel, you'll be guided through every intricate detail, allowing you to master every step of the process, resulting in a sword that's uniquely yours to display with pride.

Alternatively, let your imagination run wild by designing and crafting your own custom creation that reflects your personal style. Whether it's a striking gate panel, a stylish fire guard or something entirely unique, you'll be guided through each stage of the entire creative process, breaking it down into manageable steps and mastering essential techniques along the way. With expert instruction and personalised support in a small group of just four, you'll have the perfect blend of guidance and freedom to forge a high-quality, bespoke item.

This blacksmithing experience is more than just a class, it’s a chance to immerse yourself in a craft that dates back centuries, all while creating a bespoke item that’s truly one-of-a-kind. With expert guidance and a supportive environment, you’ll not only learn the art of blacksmithing but also leave with a treasured piece you’ll proudly show off for years to come. So why wait? Dive into this hands-on adventure and let your creative spirit forge something extraordinary!
