After reading my first Blade magazine in 1993 I decided to start making knives. I attended classes at Bill Moran Bladesmithing School in 1998 where I learnt how to make Damascus, handles and guards.

The knives I make are straight knives: Bowies, Hunters, Skinners, usually with Damascus blades. I feel that the best things about my knives are my attention to detail, the fine craftsmanship and a good heat treat.
