All knives are 100% hand made by me (I am a one-man shop).
Warranty - My knives have a lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship as long as they're used for the intended purpose.
Steel - My favorite steel is ATS-34 and 154CM.
Knives are hollow ground to a mirror or hand rubbed finish. Tangs are full tapered and handguards are stainless steel or nickel silver.
Handle Material - Micarta is my standard material. Other materials such as mammoth ivory, stabilized woods are slightly higher.
Sheaths - My sheaths are hand made and hand stitched from 8 to 9 oz. vegetable tanned leather, either plain or tooled.
Design - I have many patterns both my own and classic, if you have something in mind send a drawing we can work from.
