J.G. Ears Knives (Forge-Your-Own-Knife Experience)

Custom knifemaker Ross Jagears runs a one-on-one forge experience out of his working shop, Jagears Knives and Smithy, near Wichita. You fire up the forge and do most of the hammering yourself while he coaches each step, from drawing out hot steel to shaping the blade. It is a genuine bladesmithing session rather than a watch-the-pro demo. Booked directly with the maker by appointment.

The move: Fire up a coal forge and take turns hammering glowing steel into a real knife blade under the smith's guidance.
