We are thrilled to announce that we will be hosting bushcraft instructor David Cronenwett of the Wilderness Arts Institute for this hands-on intensive in traditional toolmaking and usage.
The first day and a half of this course will be spent making a crooked knife (mocotaugan), hook knife and possibly more. Basic metalworking, green wood carving and leather work will be covered. From here, we will put them immediately to use carving traditional Scandinavian “Kuksas” (coffee cups), bowls, spoons and other creations. If time and energy permit, students will make simple Kolrosing tools to add beautiful patterns on their finished pieces.
Looking to create functional and aesthetically pleasing tools and useful objects? This is the course for you!
Held at our outfitted basecamp in Flagstaff in a heated hogan.
Course runs from 8 am to 5 pm each day. Participants need to provide their own lodging and meals.
