"A really enjoyable day! Dave is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and an excellent teacher. His guidance was honest and was always considerate of the experience that I was having and how to make it as good as possible. An amazing day course, packed with a lot of fun and learning - and a beautiful knife to take home at the end of the day.

"A totally unique experience. Dave is an excellent tutor - knowledgeable, professional and a skilled Artisan, with an abundance of patience. It really was a joy to be tutored by such an expert. There are lots of steps to the process of making a professional quality knife and we went through all of these at just the right pace. I have made a unique gift, with the resin handle from the previous week. I can 100% recommend this course. You will end the day with a thing of beauty to be treasured. Thank you very much Dave."

"A great course. Learned about different resins and the choice of materials, I chose pinecones as they gave such an interesting finish. I used the resin block for a knife handle (the knife course was the following week). But as a stand alone artwork they are truly unique. Great course just at the right pace. Dave is a great tutor professional, knowledgeable and very patient, was a real pleasure. I thoroughly recommend this course. "
