BESPOKE KNIVES BY TOP UK & USA MAKERS

Bespoke Knives by ALAN WOOD, PAUL MASON, BEN ORFORD, GUY STAINTHORP, GEOFF HAGUE, and other Top UK makers

are what I aim to provide. These Top Makers have long waiting lists and there a preowned example may save you a long wait !

Quality knives by Bespoke USA makers are a particular interest of mine as well as Japanese and French Bespoke Knife makers.

 

Thanks to my years of experience and knifemaker/dealer contacts, I have the resources available to obtain most BESPOKE knives. Let me know what you want and, if it is at all possible, I will do my best to obtain it for you.

 

BUYING A BESPOKE KNIFE:

If you wish to buy any of the New or Preowned BESPOKE knives shown on this website (or have any questions) please get in touch either via the CONTACT ME link or my email address.

 

SELLING:

If you have a BESPOKE knife you wish to sell please feel free to get in touch and, if it is of interest to my customers, I will offer you a fair and reasonable price.

If you have a knife to sell on a Commission basis then, if it is of interest to my customers, I will do my best to sell it either through this website or at the various Shows I attend each year.

     IMPORTANT NOTICE

 

  Due to the ever increasing interest in this website, I sometimes find myself struggling to answer queries & emails as promptly as I would like. Because this is still a part-time venture and I like to offer a personal, one on one service, time is sometimes an issue - so please accept my apologies in advance for any delays in replying. 

I will reply as soon as possible and, as always, strive to offer a professional service.

Please note that in order to keep this venture of mine separate from my private life, this is an INTERNET ONLY business - hence no contact phone number. While I realise this can be a source of frustration to some, I find that all/most issues can be solved by email.

So sad to hear that Knifemaking Legend TONY BOSE passed away yesterday.

The word legend is often used but in Tony's case it was entirely justified. More than anyone, he rekindled interest in the 'slipjoint' genre and was generous with his time and knowledge to other makers of this type of folder, including his work with W.R. Case.

I am proud to say I knew him and met him and the Knifemaking World will be a lesser place without him.

RIP
