Discover the art of traditional knife-making through this comprehensive instructional material from the historic John C Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC. This class, focusing on the Samuel Bell knife-making tradition, offers detailed insights into crafting fine knives in the style of the renowned 19th-century craftsman. Samuel Bell (1798-1882) was celebrated for his exceptional work as a silversmith and knife maker, particularly known for his high-quality Dirk knives made in San Antonio.

The course material, taught by experienced instructors at the Folk School's dedicated blacksmith shop, covers traditional knife-making techniques and processes. The Folk School, established in 1925, maintains its commitment to preserving traditional crafts through hands-on learning experiences. This instructional content provides valuable knowledge for both aspiring and experienced knife makers interested in historical crafting methods.

From the Author: Chuck Patrick and I taught the above Class at the John C Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC in January of 2007. Samuel Bell made knives in Knoxville, TN and moved to San Antonio, TX. You will learn to forge these small Dirks with the longitudinal grooves and delicate Spanish Notches. Samuel Bell was an accomplished silversmith who made silver spurs for Sam Houston. Chuck and I show you how to make these knives with simple handles. I want to thank Mark Zalesky for allowing us to use his knives in this class.

Comfortable and easy to move around
This chair is really comfortable. The seat cushion is soft but supportive, and the mesh back keeps my back cool during long workdays. The lumbar support helps a lot with my posture. What I especially like is how smoothly the casters roll — glides effortlessly on my floor, no noise at all. Assembly was quick, around 10 minutes. The flip-up armrests also help save space when pushing the chair under my desk. Great value for the price. Highly recommend for anyone needing a solid, comfortable home office chair.

Great chair at a good price
It's a great chair, comfortable and reasonably priced for an ergonomic office chair. I usually don't write reviews, but I also understand how purchasing an office chair can feel overwhelming with so many choices. I needed to replace the chair I'd purchased in 2020. At the time I'd not spent a lot of money, not sure if working remotely would be temporary or permanent. It lasted about as long as one might expect. I did quite a bit of research choosing a replacement. I'm always hesitant to purchase furniture without trying it out in person. This chair is worth the price, not on the higher end of what's available but definitely not cheap. I've had it for about three weeks and so far, it's perfect for the 8-10 hours I spend in it during the week. It arrived early, a great bonus. Assembly was quick, with easy-to-follow directions and all the tools and parts needed. (including some spare screws). I agree with others who mentioned that a spare set of hands would have helped, but I had no issue doing it myself. It's a sturdy chair with good lumbar support. The adjustability of that feature can accommodate different heights. (I'm around 5'4") Changing seat height or whether the back tilts or remains stationary are all easy to accomplish. The one minor caveat is the seat is leather, so in warm weather and shorts season, it's not ideal. I solved that by purchasing a cover (because of the way the chair fits together, I purchased one that covers both the seat and back because a seat cover by itself would not work). That has worked fine and I'm not sure whether I'll keep the cover on all year. Overall, it's a great chair at a good price.

Comfortable and Great Value Office Chair
This office chair exceeded my expectations for the price. The assembly was quick and easy, and the chair feels sturdy once put together. The seat cushion is comfortable for extended use, while the mesh back helps keep airflow moving throughout the day. I also like the adjustable lumbar support and flip-up armrests, which make it easy to customize and save space when not in use. It rolls smoothly, looks professional, and provides great comfort for working from home. Overall, an excellent value and a solid choice for a home office.
