"LTC Dan is thoughtful, educational, and safe. Had an excellent educational and training session and cannot wait to meet again and keep working on my skills."
"I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Dan and Silas from Bladesmith Outdoor Leadership Training. Dan was knowledgeable and thorough about all things relating to gun safety and responsible firearm ownership. Both Dan and Silas were patient and kind during the hands on training portion of the day. It was an all around fun, relaxing and enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend!"
"Dan is an exceptional teacher who is thorough, mindful of his students and incredibly knowledgeable on all things related to guns and gun safety. I am so fortunate to have had him as my instructor for my first experience with firearms. I highly recommend!!"
"Dan is an incredible instructor. He made sure to spend ample time going over handgun safety and made sure I felt safe and confident before practicing in a very non-intimidating way. He helped me figure out what I need to work on and I was able to make improvements in just one session. I would highly recommend especially for fellow women looking to learn or just feel more confident with a firearm!"
"Bladesmith Outdoor Leadership Training is exactly what I’ve been looking for! I recently participated in a 1-on-1 training. I’ve had experience with firearms in the past and wanted to push my level of skills and knowledge with someone experienced in education. Dan Smith met & exceeded my expectations. His training is personable and effective and has a wealth of knowledge no matter your skill level. Not only would I recommend him, I will be returning for another training."
