![Text Box: WELCOME
Specializing in sporting, utility and kitchen knives.
Most blades are crafted from Swedish industrial circular and band saw blades.
[similar to 1084 with a little molybdenum and vanadium ]
Recycled from the wood mills of North Idaho.
Handles are from natural horn, antler, exotic wood and micarta. From start to finish all the blades, handles, leather work and all processes are done by myself in my shop.
My knives are my own design and are intended to be used for that which they are made. I stand behind my work as long as it is not abused.
Also, I ‘m happy to work with a customer’s design or idea.
MY INTENT IS TO MAKE AN ORIGINAL KNIFE THAT LOOKS GOOD AND PERFORMS GREAT AT A REASONABLE PRICE.](index_files/image717.gif)
