  • Long-time member

    A Maker who has been a valued part of this community for several years.

  • Great service

    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

Born and raised in the city, I am a New Yorker to the core. I’ve seen this island at its worst and made it through in one piece; so it’s reasonable to say I would like to continue living and working in an urban environment for years to come. In the past I have freelanced as a 3D computer artist and animator, ironwork designer, and product designer/developer. Today I am a full time teacher and bladesmith.

2017 I won Forged In Fire (a competition knife and sword making show on the History channel) twice, becoming the third Forged In Fire champion of champions. The winnings from the show allowed me to grow my tiny shop into a small school, and 2019 we moved into Industry City to grow the school and add the storefront.

    Theo did an absolutely amazing job on my knife! He added a lot of extra touches that I wouldn't have thought of and the recipient loved it. Would highly recommend him. He sent me plenty of pictures and even a video update during the process. Answered my questions in a timely manner. Great working with him!! Thank you Theo!

    First time ever getting a custom made knife and it turned out to be a one of kind, truely unique in everyway. It arrived just before Christmas and couldn't wait to open the box. As soon it was Christmas morning I opened the box. Looking forward to getting another knife made by Theo Nazz.

    My knife came out amazing. The blade came out looking like the work of art that it is and yet it still keeps all of the strength and utility that any knife should have. Theo really worked with me on the design process to ensure my idea came through and he constantly gave me updates. 11/10 and I will definitely be working with him again.
