How the Waitlist Works

Six months out. Worth the wait.

The books are full, so every new custom goes on the waitlist. The list is currently sitting at around six months. Put your name down now and we'll come to you when your order comes up.
01 Join the waitlist — $250 refundable deposit — holds your place in the queue. The wait is currently around six months.
02 Izac reaches out — when your order comes up, Izac will contact you personally to discuss the build. Steel, profile, handle, engraving, sheath, finish — all of it.
03 You get a quote — a final price for your approval before anything is cut.
04 We build — once the quote is accepted, your knife is usually made within 4–6 weeks. By hand, one at a time, in Anna Bay.

Not Every Brief Gets a Yes

Customs are reserved for specialty builds in the most exotic and unique materials on earth.

We turn down most custom requests. It keeps the few we take honest — knives nobody else is making, in materials you won't find on a production bench, built with the kind of detail you can't rush. If your brief is right, we'll build something you won't see twice.
  • Mammoth molar — stabilised fossil ivory. No two pieces on earth are alike.
  • Coppermascus — copper-layered Damascus where the blade itself is the showpiece.
  • Crocodile teeth, pearl and abalone shell — the rare stuff, worked into inlays, spacers and full handles.
  • One-of-one builds — bespoke profiles, rare handle stacks, integrated bolsters, mosaic pins.
  • Heirloom commissions — knives engraved for a name, a date, a story you want passed down.
  • Briefs we can do justice to — if it's a standard profile, our weekly drops and Built to Order range will get you there faster.

From The Last Few Commissions
Built once. Carried for life.
Verified Customers. Real Knives. Honest Words.
Elmax Hunter — Tassie Blackwood & Abalone
★★★★★
This is an incredible knife. Beautiful and balanced. Most importantly it's beefy enough to slice and break down an animal, balanced and heavy enough to chop through bone or wood. Very well made.
★★★★★
Tough yet elegant style, sharp as a razor, built for punishment and sits in the hand like it was made just for me.
Bear Knife — Tassie Blackwood, TruStone & Antler
★★★★★
Awesome knife. Looks and feels great in the hand, nice and sharp. Has good weight to it — nice quality bit of kit.
