I've been around for a long time but have been MIA the past couple years. I've still been playing with knives, machetes, and axes just in other venues. Now I have all my technical issues resolved and have a computer out here where I build, work on, and make knives.
Everything is done by me, here in my shop, by hand. I make the knives, the sheaths (kydex and leather), the fire steels, the sharpening rods, and I even make all of the Custom Lanyard beads.
12 years in and I'm still a noob with tons of learning to do. I do turn out some useful and capable knives though and hopefully I can generate a little income to buy more supplies and practice, practice, practice.....
I'll list one or two per day to keep it simple for all of us, especially me.
These are working knives and not show pieces. Prices will reflect that.
