As the name might imply, the Tharwa grinding room is home to several grinding machines, but that’s not just all it's used for. With a multitude of workbenches and woodworking tools, it’s also where students can find themselves making knife handles or making the finishing touches on a blade.
It's also attached to our classroom, where students will learn the theory of knifemaking before beginning with their blacksmiting work.
