Bespoke commissions
Custom swords & knives
No minimum order. One blade, one smith, forged to your measurements.
Not every blade belongs on a shelf. If you already know the length, the steel and the hand that will hold it, we will forge it for you — one off, no catalogue compromise. Bring us a sketch, a museum reference, a family crest or just a drawing on a napkin; we will work out the geometry and build it to hold an edge.
- Blade steel 1060, 1075, 1095 or pattern-welded Damascus — pick the alloy that suits how you will actually use it.
- Length & grind From a 6-inch hunting knife to a 42-inch claymore, with flat, hollow or convex grinds.
- Handle & fittings Oiled walnut, micarta, stacked leather or bone, with a brass, steel or bronze guard and pommel.
- Etch & sheath Your initials, a crest or a dedication etched in the ricasso, plus a hand-stitched leather sheath.
Typical lead time is 6–10 weeks from deposit, with progress photos sent at quench and at final assembly.
