New 2025 Work Shop!?
That’s right after two wonderful years in the last new work shop I am transforming a building that was home to chickens and a pig into our new new work shop! This shop is on track to becoming the best shop yet! With some proper enhancements this space will be my next safe haven.
I SOLD THE SHOP!?
That’s right, no click bait here, I sold the shop! Check out the final good bye and next adventures coming our way.
New Work Shop!
Curious what the new work shop looks like? Well wonder no more! Check out this video where I give some updates & provide a tour. I’m excited to keep making bespoke cutlery and put the finishing touches on this work space.
Pete’s Pirate Life Tribute Build.
I’m a huge fan of Peter McKinnon & his Pete’s Pirate Life passion project. Something I noticed quickly was this knife loving guy (Peter) doesn’t have a full size functional knife set of his pirate logo. Well spoiler alert… I’m the first person on planet earth to successfully scale his iconic logo into a functional wall mount knife set (skull included).
To my knowledge Peter hasn’t seen this & that’s ok. I built this as an expression of my gratitude for his craft and ability to share my craft. This set is no longer in my possession but don’t worry just like the PPL coin drops the next version is always better ;)
Hand sanding & more hand sanding…
I often get asked what it takes to finish a knife handle… my answer is always lots of hand sanding haha
In this video I finish off a stunning ShokRes knife handle for a local chef, I dare you not to hit fast forward on an already sped up video ;)
My first splash into YouTube!
Ever wonder if you can just mod an off the shelf folding knife to fit more of your look and style? While I wondered the same thing. Here you get to watch me experience taking apart a folding knife and attempt to dye the factory G10 handle material.
