Models

These production models are made in batches available for sale but they can also be pre-ordered. The design of each model and the steel type are thoughtfully chosen for a specific intended use. The handle material may vary from stabilized wood, Micarta and G10.

I personally make all the passages of the production in my workshop, from the heat treating to the grinding of the blades, the finishing and the leatherwork. The only step I rely on a third part is at the very beginning of the process in which I have the steel blanks laser cut in large batches from a local company to have the exact same design for every blade.
