HurleyKnives
Custom Handmade Bushcraft, Hunting, and EDC knives, made to last.
Jeff makes his knives based off his own designs, using 1095, 80CRv2 and a few other high carbon steels. He also uses high strength epoxy and flared tubing pins to attach the handles for durability and a nice solid feel. Jeff also does his own precision heat treating in house with a digital oven and appropriate quench oil to ensure maximum hardness and toughness of the blades. His knives are built to withstand heavy use and will last a lifetime.
Halfrich Custom Knives
Halfrich knives are geared towards use, he makes knives that will work in several applications from tactical to the hunting field, and investment-grade knives on request. His knives are made first and foremost for performance and user comfort. They are cutting instruments designed specifically for a given task. You'll notice that the bevels are ground thin and the cutting edge is very fine. Sharpness and performance exceeds most of my customers' expectations. The greatest challenge he has found in knifemaking is blending comfort with form and function, so what you'll find in his knives is a reflection of taste in design, and a knife that performs an intended task with great ease.
Harvey J Dean
Most of Harveys blades are forged to shape using traditional methods that have been used for centuries. Each knife is tested for performance and only the highest quality will leave his shop. He collaborates with engravers and carvers to develop one of a kind pieces. His desire is to treat all of my clients with fairness and integrity. Therefore, work is scheduled to insure each customer a high quality product. When you place your order, or anytime before the delivery date, he will need the following information: knife style desired, your choice of carbon steel or Damascus blade, preferred fittings, and desired handle material. A small deposit is required for a customer designed knife.

This steel is one of the best corrosion resistant steels available today with edge holding characteristics that are desirable in a working knife. All models are made from 1/8" stock except models #3 and #21 (built from 3/16" stock).
