2026 Order Process

I truly love making knives. It’s a passion — not my full-time job — and I want to keep it that way so I can stay creative and continue pushing my limits as a maker.

For 2026, I’ll be taking only 4 custom orders per month.  Here’s how it works:

  • You and I will talk through what you want — design, materials, details, everything.

  • Once we agree on the build and price, I’ll add you to the next available slot on my list.

  • About 3–5 days before I start your knife, I’ll reach out to confirm all the final details before I begin.

  • Communication is key, if something comes up and you need to be removed from the list, please let me know immediately.  If you ghost me when I message to confirm or when the knife is complete, you will be blacklisted.

  • I don’t take money in advance unless there is a unique material order that needs to be made prior to making the knife.  Otherwise, you will be contacted when the knife is complete and payment is expected that day.

Just like in my day job, I strive to underpromise and overdeliver. There will be times I get ahead of schedule and can move folks up the list — or even take on an extra order when time allows.

In addition to these custom builds, I’ll also be offering ready-to-purchase knives in my group throughout the year — pieces I make for fun, practice, or to explore new models. You’ll also find some of my work available at shows along the way.
