The Art of Making.

NGKnives is Australia’s leading hub for knifemaking, blacksmithing, and hands-on maker experiences.

“Me and a group of 3 mates did the 3-day Damascus course, and I can say without a doubt, it was the greatest experience we’ve ever had”.

We deliver professionally run, hands-on experiences led by skilled makers, offering everything from foundational bladesmithing to specialised pop-up workshops across a range of heat-based art mediums.

Whether you’re brand new or looking to refine your skills, our workshops are built to educate, inspire, and deliver something you can take pride in.
