The knife making class was a gift from my wife for my son and me — and what an adventure it turned out to be. We’ve taken other ‘maker’ classes before, mostly in woodworking, but this was entirely new. The hands-on experience at AK University was the perfect balance of technical precision, artistic creativity, and practical craftsmanship.

Grinding the steel and shaping the blade was challenging yet rewarding. Andreas’ clear guidance and demonstration made even the complex steps approachable. I left the class with a true appreciation for how much skill and care go into creating a functional piece of art.

The workshop itself reflects Andreas’ dedication — beautifully organized and full of the tools and energy of a craftsman who loves his work. His passion is infectious, and the day flew by. I’d absolutely recommend AK University to anyone looking for an immersive, inspiring experience.
