Custom Orders

Your knife, from the bar up.

Tell us what you need and we'll forge it. Custom work is what the shop was built for.

What you choose

  • Blade style — hunter, skinner, bowie, chef, cleaver, bushcraft, EDC, or something off a sketch you send us
  • Blade length and thickness
  • Steel — 1095, Damascus, D2, or 440C (see the Steel Guide)
  • Handle material — walnut, rosewood, olive wood, micarta, resin, bone, horn, stag
  • Fittings — brass, copper, or steel bolsters and pins
  • Sheath — leather colour and carry style
  • Engraving — see Engraving & Personalization

How it works

  1. Send your brief. Email us with what you want, or a photo or drawing of it.
  2. We quote. Price and timeline, no obligation.
  3. 50% deposit to start. The balance is due before shipping.
  4. Progress photos at forging and at finishing, so there are no surprises.
  5. Ships once you've approved the finished piece.

Timeline

Most custom builds take 3 to 6 weeks depending on complexity and how deep the queue is. Damascus and multi-piece sets run longer. We'll give you a real date, not an optimistic one.
