Light of Day Bindery offers custom made paring knives and lifting knives, necessary tools used in the art of bookbinding.Knives are created from steel blanks and some are retooled from old knives in which the steel is high quality and already tempered. Students who are participating in private study at the bindery learn to make their own knives and use both the table grinder and the Tormek water wheel to shape and sharpen their personal knives.
