All custom knives I make are designed as a functional tool. No matter how fancy or elaborate, a custom knife must function as a cutting instrument first, creating a blend of utility and aesthetics. From the simplest carbon steel hunting knife to the most elaborate mosaic Damascus folding knife, each of my knives is treated with the same skill and dedication to excellence.
Though I work only from my own designs, I have a long-standing commitment to collaborating with collectors to create knives that you will enjoy having and I will enjoy making. Tell me what type of knife you want and I will give you my best work in the confines of your budget.
 | This is a special goblin folder with face pattern mosaic in the bolsters. The blade is a multi bar Damascus "W" pattern. Available for $5,000. |
 | This is the first chevron folder to my knowledge ever built. It is a very complex method of forge welding segments in to a blade. It was a method used in Persia and some parts of India to make presentation grade swords. It was an ancient method for the blade smith to show his skill with a hammer. This is a one of a kind folder. Available for $2600. |
 | Totally carved and file worked inside and out, over 100 hours is invested in this special knife. The blade is a chevron mosaic and the bolsters are a virus pattern mosaic Damascus. It works flawlessly. It is probably the finest folding knife I have made to date. It is the second symmetrical folding dagger ever out of my shop and the first with this special mechanism. Available for $5,200. |
