OUR PROCESS

Each of my knives are truly hand forged, meaning that they are not blades purchased on Amazon, fitted with a handle bought through another vendor and sold as “handmade”. My process is accomplished in my shop, using steel, fire, hammers and presses to produce a knife, wholly created by me. This guarantee allows my customers to confidently purchase a one-of-a kind quality knife that will last from generation to generation.

It has always been my desire to produce a quality knife using the best material possible. I personally love the look and artistic value of a damascus knife so that is what I have specialized in. I use only top quality steels, normally 1095 / 15n20, and do all the forge welding right here in my shop. Once I have created a billet of damascus steel, I forge out a knife using hammering and stock removal methods depending on the results I am looking for. Once I have hardened and tempered the blade, I then hand grind all knives to the desired finished shape, bevel and smoothness and install a variety of handle styles. All my handles are produced and stabilized right here in my shop as well. Finally, I believe every quality knife deserves a quality sheath, so I do all the leather work to produce a sheath that is custom fit to each knife. Because all these processes are done by hand, every knife is unique and there may be subtle variations that occur in the forging, grinding, and leather crafting processes.
