"The course is great! I really appreciate the detail Kyle goes into. I’m fairly new to knife making and only recently bought a 2x72 grinder. That being said, I’m happy to have a resource that would continue to teach me for months/years to come."

-MA Knife and Rods
"You can tell this online class was well thought out. Everything is done extremely well, Kyle leaves nothing out. This online course would be beneficial for the beginner to someone with years of experience. Tons and tons of great information. Highly recommend!"

“Love the course! Just started the build by doing the 'sketch’. It’s new territory for me so it will be quite a challenge, but I'm looking forward to it.”

How long will I have access to The Beginner Bladesmith Online Course?

If I ever take it down, I’ll email you and give you at least a 1 year heads-up.
People ask if they get lifetime access to the course. The answer is no, I’m not committing to lifetime access because, honestly, the logistics of that sounds pretty ridiculous, especially if you live longer than me.
However, you do get access for the lifetime of the course… plus you get all future updates for free!
