Commissions

I can make most knives/tools, but since your item is custom it does take longer to complete. After I receive your email, it may take between 1 week and 2 months for me to collect the materials, complete the item, and get it to you. Prices will also vary because of materials and time.

At the moment I am unable to make anything including the following: Damascus or San-Mai (I can do it, but have never done it before, so prices might be high), an intricate guard, re-curve blade, a large or complicated bevel/grind, a folding knife, or a blade above 24 inches in total length

If you are interested, please fill out a contact form with any details you would like included in your project, such as steel and handle varieties, as well as your rough budget

If you need inspiration, I highly recommend looking through the 6 "Knife Patterns" pages on this website:

I also have begun to do decorative metal work in small batches and to order. 

Items I can make include an assortment of hooks (J, wreath, S, hanging plant, etc.), split crosses, letter openers, bottle openers, and pendants. I am also very open to trying to make a new project, but please keep in mind that my tools are limited. 

 I you are interested, please fill out a contact form with what you want, the quantity of said item, and any pictures you would like me to base it on.

I am also open to trying anything you need done in this field of work. I love to restore old tools etc., and have a couple years worth of amateur woodworking experience. I am beginning to more consistently try to carve spoons and spatulas, and experiment more and more in this channel of work. 

I am totally open to any suggestions or ideas, and the worst that can happen is I am unable to help and try to connect you to someone I know who is more knowledgeable in that field

Additionally, as I am just starting up and trying to build an inventory, I am also willing to accept payment in the form of tools or materials. If you have any blacksmithing tools, woodworking tools, metal stock, or wood in usable or salvageable condition, I would love to connect with you.

I am not in a financial position to pay for anything, but if any has any other connections, such as job or apprenticeship opportunities or access to a scrap/junk yard, I would love to connect as well.
