From Steel to Edge: A Hands-On Knife Making Series

Learn to make your own knife in this weekend workshop with MakeHaven facilitator Darryl. 
The plan is to make a Japanese style Chefs knife, which is a very wide array of shapes, but to be more specific, we will make a ~6-8" Chefs knife in one of three styles. (Gyuto, Santoku, Kiritsuke). All materials included.
Must Bring
Closed toe shoes (they will get sparks and metal flakes on it)

Long Pants (Not synthetics, they will melt, Jeans or working pants are great, just nothing tight fitting against the legs. )

Shirt (again no synthetics, you will want something breathable though. It gets warm working the knives)

Should/could bring
Your own Safety Glasses, if you have them. 

A block of wood for a handle. (If you have something specific or meaningful for you, bring it.)

Lunch (I plan for a working/on the fly lunch so if you leave for food the class will still have some topics and discussion points going on.)

Something to transport your sharp knife in.

A few knives from your house. (chefs knives, paring knives, bread knives, any type)
