What Our Patrons & Students Are Saying
I have taken two Damascus steel knife making classes with Chad at Black Hog Knives. I have two beautiful finished Damascus knives that I can proudly say I made myself. Chad's method of instruction is very intuitive, fun and easy to follow. He is an excellent Blade Smith and willing to pass along his knowledge greatly shortening the learning curve.

Chad puts everything into building and forming these knives. His creativity and designs are off the charts. I wanted a set of knives that I could carve meats with for my GSD's daily and he more than delivered!! Very impressed with the quality of the blades as well as, the handles. No forge Mark's, beautiful finish and you can cut thru anything like butter, excellent job!! I Highly recommend. I will be ordering several more for the kitchen and some survival knives.

Amazing experience. We set up a private 1 day bladesmithing course. 6 members of my family all went and we all made our own amazing knives. Everything about the experience was perfect! Highly highly recommend.
