New! T-Shirts
Available: Axes
Today there are two new axes on the available now page! Check these out…
This first one, with a light hickory handle, has a rugged forged head with lots of character.
——————- 
The second one is a touch lighter, with less cutting edge and a shorter handle. It’s hard to beat this look. Each hammer blow, each special grain and mark in the wood, each hand-drawn stitch contributes to the traditional look of these handcrafted cutting tools.

We also have a picture of the the reverese side of the sleek forged belt knife’s handle.
Thank you for stopping by and for your interest! Hope you have a wonderful day out there.
A Gift
It isn’t every day that you get to celebrate someone really special, so here’s what Lucas and Ike put together as a gift.
Lucas made this forged, antler-handled cleaver with mosaic pins; Ike made this beautiful osage cutting board. They were presented with this (delicious!) assortment of crackers with dilled havarti, muenster, and smoked gouda cheeses!
Thank you for visiting the blog!
Available: Spotlight on Pocket Knives
Hello! Today there are new knives on the Available Now page!
We’re especially focusing in on the two fixed blade pocket knives. They are both just 4 1/2 inches overall, but pack plenty of design details. The one shown above has a stabilized maple burl handle.
This tiny knife rides safe and secure in its snap pocket sheath, made by Ike. Slip it into your pocket, pack or drawer to have a small, yet capable, edge within easy reach.
The other pocket knife on display is this walnut handled beauty.
It, too, has a sheath that is specially designed for pocket-carry. It has an elasticized cord that runs from the lanyard hole, around the sheath, and rests in a small notch on the bottom of the sheath.
Both of these pocket knives have the Vine filework pattern on the spine!
This is the reverse of the coffeebag and micarta handled neck knife. The coffeebag provides great character!
These are the red and black handle liners. They add a subtle touch to the design of this neck knife.
And a final photo for today’s post…the detailed hammer forged blade belonging to Rough-Cut!
Thank you for visiting the blog! Have a great day.
Available: Axe and Facts
Hello everyone! Today’s available selection is unique in that it is the first time one of Ike’s axes is being offered on the website. And we’re pretty excited about that! This axe is the product of a lot of muscle, design, and field testing…stay tuned ’cause more may be following!
Here are some detail pictures, so you can take in some of the details of this hand forged axe!

It’s also exciting to take you up-close to some of these amazing knives!
This little Caping Knife is forged by Lucas, with a special design that allows for it to be held firm and close with the cut-out in the blade.
And it also begs that a couple photos of the blade be shown. That rich, forged texture is too cool.
Above is a picture of the reverse of the Elk River Hunter’s handle. This is a beautiful knife, folks.
Thank you for visiting the blog today! If you have any suggestions, questions, or ideas, please share in a comment! Hope you have a great day out there.
