Toulouse: Forge your own kitchen knife

For half a day, I welcome you to my workshop in Tournefeuille to teach you the age-old techniques of blacksmithing and cutlery making.
Have you always been fascinated by craftsmanship and metalwork? Do you dream of discovering the secrets of artisanal cutlery making and getting your hands dirty? My introductory day is for you.

For a full day, I welcome you to my workshop in Tournefeuille to teach you the age-old techniques of blacksmithing and cutlery making. Together, we will start with the raw material to create a handcrafted knife that you will have shaped entirely with your own hands.

On the program: an introduction to working with steel, an introduction to hardening and heat treatment, shaping the blade, working on the handle – whether in precious wood, horn or other fine materials – and meticulous finishing. I will guide you step by step, in a friendly and authentic atmosphere, explaining each stage with passion.

There’s no need to be an experienced blacksmith or to have ever touched a hammer or an anvil. I adapt to your level and support you with care, whether you're simply curious or passionate about folding knives, Damascus blades or unique pieces.

At the end of the day, you'll leave with much more than an object: a handcrafted creation that bears your personal touch, the memory of a human experience, and a fresh perspective on this unique craft passed down from generation to generation.
