Custom Orders

What's Possible

Every custom knife that leaves my studio is made to order. Each blade is crafted individually with intention, and that means every commission is an opportunity to create something perfect for the person who's ordering it.

You can specify the blade profile, handle material and shape, dimensions and balance points, and add personalization: engraving your name, a date, a phrase that means something to you. I also work with restaurant groups and high-volume kitchens to create sets tailored to their specific needs.

The Process

First, you reach out with your ideas. I'll send you a form to fill out with information about how you cook, what you're looking for, any specific requests. From there, we schedule a consultation (by phone or video) to talk through your vision in detail. Once we've aligned on the design, I begin fabrication. You'll receive updates on progress, and you'll have the opportunity to approve the final product before it ships.

Timeline

Commissions for the Artisan Collection typically take 4–12 months from order to delivery. This timeline reflects the reality of handmade work. I forge every blade individually, and I don't rush.

Timeline for manufactured knives from the Core Collection is 4–6 weeks from final sign-off on design.

Shorter timelines may be possible depending on my current queue, so feel free to inquire.

Pricing

During the consultation, I'll provide a clear quote before any work begins. Pricing varies based on the collection, size, materials, and complexity of the design.

What You're Getting

A custom commission isn't just a knife. It's a collaboration with a craftsperson who cares deeply about the work. The balance will be exactly right for your hand. The blade profile will match how you cook. The handle will fit you. And it'll be beautiful, a tool and an object of appreciation at the same time.

Include photos of your hands holding your current knife if you want me to get the size right. The more detail you share, the better I can understand your vision.

Past Collaborations

I've had the privilege of creating custom knives and knife sets for some exceptional partners, from Michelin-starred restaurants to leading retailers.
