Hooked on Knife Making at AK University
I absolutely love the knife I created, and so does the chef who’s using it! Even a week later, I still can’t stop admiring it. Andreas wasn’t kidding when he said this could become an ‘infection’—I’m hooked!
The hands-on instruction was phenomenal. Forging was my favorite part; shaping the metal felt natural thanks to Andreas’ clear and intuitive teaching. The atmosphere at AK University is exactly what I was hoping for—Andreas’ passion for the craft truly shines through in every lesson.
AKU exceeded all my expectations. I’ve wanted to forge a knife for years, and this experience was more than I could have imagined. Watching raw stock transform into a functional, beautiful piece of art was unforgettable.
Since completing the course, I’ve been thinking about trying more advanced projects like making Damascus steel. I’ve even started seeing potential blades in every piece of steel, wood, or composite I come across.
Andreas, you’re not just an incredible instructor but also a true gentleman. Your patience and passion for teaching made this an unforgettable experience. I’ve already recommended AK University to several friends, and I know they’ll enjoy it as much as I have!”
