Draw Knife

September 11-13, 2026

Instructor: Lashen Orendorff

In this class, students will forge and finish a draw knife and a carpenter's bench chisel.

Focusing on forging at the anvil and carving the handles by hand, students will leave this class knowing how to harden and temper, and will have a pair of these old-school tools that are ready to be put to work and will last for years to come. Hand forging techniques as well as symmetrical forgings will be the main focus. Shaping the handle for the tools will be done with a spoke shave.
