A Team Experience They’ll Actually Talk About Later

Most team outings are predictable — dinner, drinks, bowling, or another event people forget a week later.

At T. Hacker Blacksmith, your group gets something different. We bring a mobile forge experience to your event, where participants heat steel, hammer it into shape, and leave with something they helped create themselves.

It’s hands-on, beginner-friendly, memorable, and a strong fit for companies looking for team building activities in St. Louis that feel more unique than the usual options.

How Corporate Events Work

1) Choose the experience

Pick utility knife forging or the premium Viking axe experience.

2) We bring the forge

Events are typically hosted outdoors or in well-ventilated spaces with access to power.

3) Your team rotates through

Participants rotate through the forge while others watch, socialize, and take photos.

Typical event length: 2–4 hours

Typical group sizes: 10–30 participants for utility knife events, and 6–16 participants for axe forging events depending on event length.

Safety, Setup, and Environment

All tools, instruction, and safety equipment are provided.

Events are best suited for outdoor spaces or well-ventilated areas with access to a standard power outlet. Participants may get a small amount of forge dust or charcoal residue during the experience, but the setup is designed to keep the event safe, manageable, and beginner-friendly.

For companies without a suitable space, we may be able to help coordinate a nearby outdoor venue or event-friendly location.
