Howdy, my name is Elias, i’m the one that makes all the cool knives, leatherwork, photography, and oh yeah, just about everything else. As a kid I always enjoyed history, especially anything with swords or early firearms. This has continued into adulthood, and I actually do some reenacting in my spare time.

The first knife I ever made was crude, ugly, and dull as hell, but in its creation, I was instilled with a lifelong passion for the craft. Ive always been an artist at heart, and I thank my two artist mentors, Mr. Mahnke and Mr. Stewart for setting me off on the right foot.

14 years later, I try to grow my abilities with every knife I make, balancing form and function as best I can. I love drawing inspiration from cultures around the world; a close appreciation to that of my Okinawan and Irish heritages. My leatherwork has also become a passion as well, and I enjoy finding new tooling patterns and sheath profiles.

In addition to making regular inventory on the daily, I greatly appreciate custom orders. It feels great being able to bring a design to life for a customer, and often I discover new techniques and designs while creating commissioned pieces.
