Join Jérémie for a private knife-forging workshop! Spend a special moment with the artisan and enjoy personalized guidance as you craft a one-of-a-kind, rough-from-the-forge knife using traditional methods.

Workshop itinerary (8:30 a.m.):

• Design the shape of your knife—choose from a small camping knife, an everyday knife, a kitchen knife, or a table knife.
• Introduction to blacksmithing: learn how to position yourself in front of the forge and strike the metal without tiring too quickly.
• Planing and grinding to refine the blade, followed by heat treatments: quenching and tempering.
• Choose your handle from local woods or paracord braiding, with personalized guidance from Jérémie.
• Finishing touches: sharpening your blade.

You’ll leave with your knife ready to use and your head full of memories! A workshop open to everyone—blacksmithing requires precision more than brute strength.
