Welcome To ButterHog Forge

Hi, I’m Cole, I own and operate a small shop in Kalamazoo MI. I specialize in teaching classes on how to forge your own knife. Classes range from forging a simple S-Hook to a beautiful Damascus chef knife that will impress all who see it. Occasionally I will release custom kitchen knives at a much higher quality than my class made knives, these are designed for professional and personal use with a lifetime warranty. My shop is open to all and a perfect place to come relax, learn old techniques and new skills all while having fun!! I offer a cart of classes 7 days a week to make knife making convenient for everyone.
