Blades
I hand craft  knives and accessories to customer specifications and  I really enjoy making historic artifacts, especially of the fur-trade period.

  I hand-forge my blades, and assemble the knives, one at a time, from the materials of customer choice.   I typically forge blades of O-1, A-2, L-6, ATS-34 and 5160 steels.

  Delivery time is usually 6-8 weeks, following your deposit of 50% of total price.  I offer a three-day inspection period and your satisfaction is guaranteed.  I would love to make you a fine knife....please contact me if you would like further information

Natchez Bowie: 7" hand-forged blade of 5160 steel.  Cocobolo hilt with India Stag spacer and naval brass mountings.  $275.00
A trio of French-Pattern Trade Knives.  These are hand forged and ground from the automotive spring they are resting on.  Cocobolo handles and brass pins complete these knives.  Great for the fur-trade re-enactor!  I can make you a sheath at additional cost, but most of the "Rondevooers" like to make their own!  Knives are  $125.00 each.
Nessmuk Knife:  This ultimate outdoor knife features a hand-forged 4.5" blade of customer choice of several types of  steel and  handle materials.  Includes hand-made leather sheath.  Prices begin at $300.00
Blackpowder-shooter's "Bag Knife" hand-forged from a 3" length of automotive coil spring.  $85.00 
I hope you have enjoyed looking at my knives!  Check back frequently as there are always new knives that need good homes.
