Artist Sculptor Blacksmith Pete Mattila at Mattilla Studio in Hobart Tasmania
Tools for the Kitchen At this intensive weekend blacksmithing course you’ll learn the fundamentals of hand-forging as you make tools for the kitchen with Pete Mattila. This is a perfect primer for anyone interested in the craft of blacksmithing. We explore and practice a range of forging techniques, while deep-diving into a range of tools and processes that are specific to the iron vocabulary. Each participant will make a set of cooking tools that display a number of practical forging processes. This knife making course takes place in Hobart, Tasmania at artist blacksmith Pete Mattila’s waterfront studio.
