Custom knives are our passion. each piece is hand
made using the best materials available. whether
it's a hunting knife or an addition to your collection.
we make many types of custom knives including
custom bowie knives, custom folding knives, and
custom slipjoint pocket knives. Made from materials
such as High Carbon Steels including O1 tool steel,
and 1095. In stainless we feature 440C, and
ATS34 along with a full line of Damascus Steels
some of which are made right in our shop. We do
all of our own hardening and heat treating
(tempering) giving our blades the ultimate all
around durability of RC 57 - 58. Blade finishes
include satin, mirror polish, musket brown, gun
metal blue, and a "Damascene" finish for O1 and
1095 which gives a custom knife, a Damascus
Look without a Damascus Price.

Handle Materials are one the main factors that
make a custom knife "Custom". We use only the
best, most exotic, highly figured handle materials
on earth. We constantly search the globe for new
materials. We only use stabilized woods on our
Custom Knives. We also offer such materials as
Fossil Mammoth Ivory that dates between 12,000
and 15,000 years old. And Ancient Kauri which is
the world's oldest workable wood, and has been
carbon dated to 50,000 years old. Each of our
custom knives now comes with a Certificate of
Authenticity which clearly states all the materials
used in building the true Custom Knife.

JW Smith & Sons Custom
Knives feature Hand Made
Leather Accessories. Each
custom knife comes with a truly
custom sheath made
specifically for the knife.
Meaning the sheath is made
from a template which is taken
from a tracing of the custom
knife itself for a perfect fit. Then
hand tooled and sewn by hand
with needle and thread. For

Leather Accessories please visit
