4-Week Bladesmithing Intensive: Dive into bladesmithing in this quick, but thorough reference guide! - Softcover
Synopsis
Four sessions. One blade. No shortcuts.
Most knife books show you what a master can do. This one walks you through what you can do, in four working sessions, with fire, steel, and a plan.
The 4-Week Bladesmithing Intensive is the working companion to Kilroy's Workshop's hands-on course, and it stands on its own for any maker with shop access. Week one, you design a knife worth building and earn your hammer control at the anvil. Week two, you learn what heat actually does inside steel and forge your blade to shape. Week three is the point of no return: normalize, harden, temper, and grind. Week four: handle, finish, and add an edge that slices clean.
Inside:
- Full-scale design grids and working tables you fill in at the fire, so your first blade teaches your second
- Illustrations throughout, from knife anatomy to the finished edge
- Troubleshooting for the mistakes every first bladesmith makes, because every first-time bladesmith makes them
