Blacksmithing for Bushcraft

This is a one day introductory course. You will learn some of the basic techniques that underpin the ancient art of Blacksmithing. Over the course of the day you will create pieces for use in a Bushcraft setting. Everyone will make a simple camp fire trivet and a 'Squirell Cooker'. Depending on available time there will be the option to forge a number of other useful items, such as; an awl, a penanular blanket pin, a neck knife etc.

The venue for this course is within a 10min walk from Hereford Boating Club, where camping and showers are supplemented with canoe launch onto the River Wye.
