Step into this blacksmith shop and forge your own knife! Chad Osborne, two-time Forged in Fire competitor will guide you through the process. There are 4 sizes of knives to choose and the price ranges from $25-100 depending on the knife you forge. All knives come with a sheath.

13yo daughter and 10yo son had an amazing experience pounding on the anvil and creating blades of steel. The results were some unforgettable memories and some pretty darn cool (and sharp!) souvenirs. The owner was great with the kids and they felt they did the majority of the work themselves. Knife making ranged from $25 to $100 depending on size, and it takes about an hour. Located on top of the hill behind the green and red carriage building.
