Blades
I have been making knives since 1997.
I received my Journeyman Smith accreditation from the American Bladesmith Society in 2010, and am one of only five journeyman smiths in Australia.
All of my blades are sole authorship - I make any damascus that’s used, and shape and fit all of the handles, guards, and other fittings, as well as any other embellishment. I also make a matching sheath for each blade, and enjoy embellishing them with carving, inlays, and other decorative elements.
Each picture links to a gallery with further information about the blade and additional photographs.
