Our story.

Rewind 28 years …

Right back at the very beginning I started mucking around making knives at 13 years of age, my best mate’s dad was a knifemaker and he was the one to teach me the basics, I started out with the most basic of tools, a hacksaw and a file, making under my parents house driving everyone nuts with the noise. I had a dream that hopefully one day I would be able to make a living out of what I was so passionate about.

I can’t say I have had the easiest run at it, living out of cars and tents to save money so I could continue to focus on making knives for markets and fairs. My first blacksmithing workshop I built out in the bush, breaking out charcoal from trees I felled on the land to run my forge.

Fast forward many years, my workshop and knives have evolved but I can say I still have the same dream, I love making knives not because it’s my job but because I love creating something people with find useful, that brings as much happiness for them as it did for me making it.

Hell, if I wanted a good income I would have become a lawyer 😂
