Our knives are custom handmade and represent a unique art form. Our original designs and choice of materials gives you a distinctively different type of knife compared to a machine factory finished knife. Knives come with a sheath and may vary from the sheath shown in the picture due to production lots. Variations in colors, Damascus patterns, and finishes are a natural part of artisan handmade kn
ives and add to their uniqueness and beauty. If specified, some knives are made of D2 steel or 440c stainless steel. Because these are handmade knives, and not machined, you will frequently see imperfections, blemishes, and differences in finish materials that are part of a handmade product and natural materials. We are based in the United States and stand fully behind our products. We do occasionally make mistakes, and for that we do apologize in advance. If you look closely at our reviews, you will clearly see that we stand behind our knives and quickly take care of any issues that you may have to do contact us. Our knives come in a factory box and are typically well oiled. When you receive our knife, you need to wipe it down with a clean soft cloth. We enclose recommended knife care instructions. We are a small manufacturer and depend on your continued support and great reviews. Please work with us and we promise to take care of you. Thanks for buying our knives and we look forward to having you as a customer.
