Thank you for your
interest in my knives. I design my own knives and create
them using
the stock-removal method which is basically the profiling and
grinding
of a length of steel to produce a blade. Every part of the knife
making
process is completed by me in my shop right down to the heat
treating and tempering of the steel and Rockwell hardness testing of
each blade.
I
am currently using CTS-XHP, CPM-154 and RWL-34 stainless
steels,
A2 tool steel,
and 10 series carbon steels, Damascus, and other steels upon
request.
My blades are either hollow or flat ground with a hand-rubbed satin
finish.
Your choice of handle materials is almost endless, but
mostly consists of exotics, stabilized woods, stag, G10, and
micarta. I personally dye and/or stabilize most of the woods I use
so
if you have your own
favorite wood, I can make it suitable for use on your next knife.
Every
knife created
receives a custom designed and fitted sheath created by my wife, Amy
Novinc, who has become quite an accomplished leather craftsman. All
of
my
knives are warrantied for life
and by that, I mean your life or my life. When I die, all bets are
off.
This warranty applies to the original purchaser and is not
transferrable to subsequent owners of my knife.
Please
visit the other areas of this site and contact me to create your
knife.
My backlog of current orders also consists of several knives that I
will produce and list on this site as "Available" so be sure to
check
back often. Thank you for your interest. |
