A day in this workshop is unlike most things you can give someone. You arrive with nothing. You leave with a knife you made with your own hands — designed by you, finished to a standard that will genuinely surprise you, and built to last a lifetime.

No experience needed. Just a willingness to show up and make something real.

One Day

A full day in the workshop, one to one with Chris. You'll design your blade, cut and shape it from high carbon tool steel, heat treat and quench it, choose your handle wood from a selection of exotic hardwoods, and finish it to a standard you'll be proud of for years. We can also stamp the blade with your initials or chosen letters if you'd like.

The day runs from 9am and we won't stop until the knife is done.

One person — £320

Two people — £550

Two Days

For the person who wants to go further. Two full days in the workshop, more time on the craft, a larger and more complex knife. Bought as a gift or for yourself.

One person — £700

Two people — £1,280

Want Chris to make it for you?

If you'd rather watch and be involved in the design without getting your hands dirty, that's absolutely fine. Same day, same workshop, same result — a knife made to your specification, finished in front of you. Get in touch to discuss.

Not sure which to choose?

Call or message Chris directly. He'll help you find the right day.
