All Bladesmithing courses will be taught in Washington, Arkansas, in a replica of a one-room school house and a stable/barn that blends in with the old-time atmosphere of the town, also known as Old Washington Historic Park. The school consists of a modern classroom in addition to the work area which include six forges, six anvils, six grinders, three trip hammers, work benches and related tools.
