Merry Christmas!

Lucas Forge Posted on December 25, 2021 by Lucas ForgeDecember 25, 2021

Dear Friends,

During this special season, We celebrate the hope of all people everywhere, the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

” Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” ”  Luke 2:8-11

I hope and pray that you will know the peace, hope and joy that Jesus Christ brings, during this season and all through the year ahead.

Thank you to everyone for your kind support and encouragement throughout 2021. It is truly appreciated so much!

May God bless you all,
Lucas

Paul’s ProSkinner

Lucas Forge Posted on October 29, 2021 by Lucas ForgeOctober 21, 2021

We wanted to share this moving piece from Paul about his new knife. Thank you so much for the kind words and letting Lucas Forge be a part of your outdoor life.

ProSkinner, Skinner, Skinning Knife, Lucas Forge, Hunting Knife, Bird Hunting Knife, Fish Knife

Hello, Lucas, just wanted to tell you about my experience with the Pro Skinner, mine built with Osage and aged blade just received a few weeks ago. I used it to skin out a woodcock this morning. As a Woodcock and Grouse hunter I will do full caping of each bird for my fly tying inventory. The Pro Skinner is perfect and fits beautifully for this delicate work. The thin blade and keen edge that you put onto it is wonderful. For me aesthetics is an important part of not just this little knife but the whole picture of my days afield from hunting these beautiful birds in the Fall to casting my soft hackles that they provide me during trout seasons. Nothing is more satisfying in late Winter than pulling out a bird that I hunted, selecting a feather and winding it around a hook. It does wonders anticipating the next season. And your work is a part of it all.

Behind the Scenes: Mushrooms

Lucas Forge, Custom Hunting KnivesHere’s a tiny little mushroom colony near our photoshoot! Over the next couple days they grew and grew into a large bunch. Though I don’t know the variety, they were fascinating to watch. Are you a mushroom hunter?
