A collection of one-of-a-kind commissions—each forged by hand, each with its own story. These pieces now live out in the world, but their memory is kept here.

Retirement Axe – For a Jazzman

Two deep etchings complete the tribute: one of their signature and band name, the other a custom silhouette of them mid-sway, lost in the music, stand-up bass in hand.

Commissioned to honour a lifetime on stage, this bespoke axe blends rhythm and craft. Built on a solid oak core and wrapped in birdseye sugar maple, its handle echoes the warm, natural tones of a well-loved upright bass—with just a hint of flash, true to the player’s spirit.


Custom Nakiri Knife
This Nakiri-style chef’s knife was hand-forged from a recycled farrier’s rasp, giving the blade a one-of-a-kind fish scale texture that nods to a working past. Hidden tang handle in ash, with a sugar maple accent that fades from emerald green to honey.


Mini Cleaver 1-of-1
This custom EDC mini cleaver features a gloss-finished handle over layered recycled skateboard veneer—bringing a vivid, one-of-a-kind colour blend to a blade that’s built for daily use and designed to stand out.


Form Meets Function, Forged in Colour.
This bespoke, one-of-a-kind axe was commissioned by a skateboard veneer supplier and built to turn heads and hit targets. The handle showcases experimental grip contours and vibrant layered colour from reclaimed board stock—each line telling a story. Up top, the custom head blends a forge-blackened finish with a mirror-polished bevel, making it as striking on the wall as it is in the lane. A true fusion of art, sport, and steel.

Cleaver-Style Thrower, Forged to Hit.
This straight-handled cleaver-style axe featured a raw forge finish that keeps it gritty and grounded. Built with a durable hickory core wrapped in sugar maple for a smooth, balanced grip. Designed for consistent throws and brutal beauty.
