I have been working with metal most of my life, as a fabricator, as a blacksmith, as a knife maker, as an artist. I forge one-of-a -kind knives from artisan Damascus (pattern welded steel) that I create. There is no out sourcing of any kind, I am the sole creator of each piece. Damascus is in my blood, I love the process of forging and manipulating the steel into a unique, beautiful and fully functioning artifact. Quality comes first and foremost. I constantly strive to challenge myself, test my abilities and improve my work.
