Another great workshop held by Fallon-Carter Counties MSU Extension was a Knife Making workshop. Thirteen participants attend this workshop, and it was a great learning experience for both the participants and MSU Extension. Participants were able to use their own resources (horn or wood) to create a one-of-a-kind knife handle. Through instructor assessments and one-on-one conversations, it was evident how much the participants enjoyed the workshop and the knives they were able to make. Since the class was a new offering, it also became evident that one set of tools was not enough for a group of 13, and adjustments will be made for future classes.
