Instructor Recommendation for next course to try: SPIKE KNIFE
Im going to be visiting St louis in June and would love to try my hand at blacksmithing. Is there a calendar to see what may be available or a process for requesting a class of a specific day?
Aaron,
We typically only schedule a month in advance for our instructor. But if you have a specific date you are looking for please let me know and I will discuss it with our instructor.
Thanks,
Craft Central
