Nicola Corfield reviewed: Couples Date Day- Best Date Ever!- Blacksmithing Experience Day

"An interesting and fun day for the two of us. Jon is a great instructor. He took on our slightly off beat project request with real enthusiasm. There is help available whenever you need it and in our case as complete newbie’s plenty of instruction and useful tips. We really did have a fabulous day. "

Kerr Forge responded:

"Thanks Nicola! It was a pleasure."

Desi reviewed: Forge a Knife- Blacksmithing and Knifemaking Experience Day

"John was a fabulous instructor; very patient and laid back. It starts with the safety instructions , then choosing what kind of knife you'd like to make (for which John has plenty of examples to help). My son and I had a great time, learning occurred and we have a pair of (two totally different) fantastic knives to show for it! Would heartily recommend this course; my advice would be wear long sleeves (to protect from sparks) and thick socks ( we went in winter, and the forge gets a little chilly when the fire isn't lit!)."

"An excellent course Jon is a good teacher who makes sure you have understood the techniques before moving on. It was a full day's work giving me the opportunity to learn so many skills and techniques to help me set up my own forge I would recommend this course to everyone no matter your skills or experience Amazing day Thanks Jon"
