If my
knives attract your interest, then you are probably an individual
who knows what he likes. Yes, these knives are different,
unusual, and even radical to some. But that is the reason
they caught your eye. Some will not like these knives, but
they are not designed for everyone, but for a special few.
If you
decide to order a knife, don't expect just a knife. It will
be more of an experience, something with feeling, beauty,
something you must hold in your hand, something that must
be displayed and shown with pride to those who will know the
difference.
A
point to think about here...each knife I make will be
a little different. That is because I use no jigs, fixtures,
or milling machines in the making of my knives. It is
all done free hand.
All operations are done while holding
the part
or the machine
in my hands. So when you receive your knife it may not
look exactly
like the one in the images. I do not try to make any
two knives exactly a like.
My
primary steel for blades is
Crucible CPM 154 stainless. I
have tried many different steels over the past years
and 154CM is now my first choice. I will use other
steels as an extra cost option. CPM
S30V and D2
can be made into excellent blades because of their
exceptional wear resistance. But these steels are
harder to work, require different heat treatment,
and can only be had in satin
finish.
Also, I have access to Damascus for blade stock. I
grind it to shape, it will not be forged to shape.
