Home Page for Wildfire Cutlery

Please note: I put a lot of information on this site, as I am basically an educator at heart.
But
if your very busy and do not care about all this hoo-ha and are just looking for a gift, then drop me an email describing what your
looking for, and I will be happy to promptly reply with options, questions or suggestions. No charge and
no obligations. Contact me via email ⇒ wildfirecutlery1@gmail.com

I am a full-time maker of  hand made carbon steel Western and Asian inspired kitchen knives. When I have time, I make kitchen knives to my own design, and ⇒list them on my kitchen knives in stock page⇐.

However, most of my time is spent as a custom blade smith, collaborating with folks from all around the world, who commission me to create kitchen knives, from high carbon steel and local hardwoods.

I have a masters degree in individualized education from C.C.N.Y. (1974), which when combined with my 37 years full time smithing experience, ideally suits me to collaborate seamlessly with each person who contacts me, on design options, cost, etc.
You can see some of my work in the slide show on this and other pages.  I really enjoy the process of collaboration and offer this design process free to any and all interested clients.
You can read and absorb this whole site or just ⇒ contact me ⇐ with your ideas and we can easily hash out a design plan and cost for your custom kitchen knife (knives).
Please do cruise around my pages &  slide shows, using the menu above and let me know if you see something you like.
