Hi, I’m Toby, 24 years married with 4 children, living in the beautiful Suffolk countryside. I was born in Australia but married an English woman, so here I find myself.

I’m an extrovert and love being with people. My passion is seeing adults and children work with their hands, come up with ideas and think outside their normal parameters allowing them to succeed in things they never considered possible.

I learned the skills of blacksmithing and knife making in Australia, and continued to make once here. After requests from customers and friends to show them how I do what I do, I designed a course to give the ultimate experience in making their very own kitchen knife. That one course has now become a series of courses, giving students the ability to come back multiple times and to pick a different course.‍ ‍
