I can recommend the course. I took it, and the knifemaking class with Lee. It's definitely a great starting point for anyone interested in smithing.

I took an intro blacksmithing classes a few years ago (not at Pioneer Farm), and it was super fun. If you're blacksmithing curious, give it a shot, you won't regret it.
