"The knife - one of man's oldest tools, born out of necessity in his hunt for survival. Times have changed - and so has technology - but to some of us, the knife is still a prime possession. A possession that gives great satisfaction from its ownership and use, knowing that it was given life by a man’s mind eye and hand in a time honoured tradition - but with the best of modern materials which can survive generations."

Latest News - The occasional knife may be listed as available

As from the autumn of 2011 I still have about seven hundred orders on my books and with 2900 interested parties (opposite) waiting to go onto the list the admin and continued interest is just taking up so much of my time. On a diferent note that may be of interest…. for all sorts of reasons I am getting the occasional drop out, not a problem as in the past I would simply move on to the next in line. However due to market forces it makes sense that I offer the occasional piece up for sale in lieu of a cancelation and off the list, as and when an example is available it will be listed on the gallery page.
