Text Box: WELCOME Specializing in sporting, utility and kitchen knives. Most blades are crafted from industrial circular or band saw blades [1084 OR L6] 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 am 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.
