As a part time knife maker my emphasis is on continuous improvement and quality rather than quantity. I am self-employed and do not get much time for making knives but I use every opportunity to learn more about the craft.
I prefer making folders and I make use of premium quality blade steel such as Damasteel, RWL34, N690 and Damascus by Ettore Gianferrari and Mike Fellows. For handle materials I prefer African Blackwood, Carbon fibre and other synthetic materials.
It is a great honour for me to be a member of the KGSA.
