Let
the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a twoedged sword
in their hand:
Psalm
149:6

I
hand-make knives of my own design from the initial concept to the
finished product. My love of fine craftsmanship is apparent in all
my work. Although I make some knives to similar patterns, each is
a unique creation; a true one-of-a-kind offering. I am always experimenting
with new designs, materials, and techniques, so my knives are constantly
evolving.
I use my own hands for each operation involved,
without the use of fixtures or jigs. The workmanship of my knives
is guaranteed for life. Virtually all of the effort expended in
the making of a knife is hand work. In this way, I develop a level
of intimacy with the materials and processes that allows me to
deeply understand the way things are coming together, and to compensate
for things like variations in natural materials.
Starting with bar stock of the best available
knife steels, I grind, polish, and heat treat my blades. Handles
are then attached and shaped by hand, of materials both ordinary
and exotic. I take great pleasure in watching the metamorphosis
occur from raw materials to finished tools that are both useful
and attractive.
