Walnut And Manzanita Knife With Cherry Accents

Mark was extremely easy to work during this project. We were drawn to his profile because of the obvious craftsmanship we saw in his prior works and a similar custom knife he had created for another Eagle Scout. For our project, that expertise plus his connection to the materials and the finished product came through. We were not disappointed! I hope we have the opportunity to work with Mark again.

The barrel has been a fantastic amenity to the course and its innovation has added to the rustic appeal of our property! Thank you Mark

My client is satisfied with the final product and accepted delivery. As the designer/architect, however, I found it difficult not to be able to talk with the cabinet maker via telephone. Minor things were missed by using only email, e.g. difficult to approve stain sample via photos, top is narrower than specified etc.
Thank you

Mark does very good work at a reasonable price and can deliver on time. The piece he did for me looks very nice and I am pretty pleased with it. I can recommend him to others – but I will add one caveat: make sure you are clear upfront with your specifications and communicate frequently during the design and production process. Because in my original RFP I stated (sort of offhandedly I suppose) that I wanted a bar cart that could accommodate standard off-the-shelf wine glass stems (the more economical ones made by Libbey and such, etc.). Unfortunately, that spec was not met due to a communication error. In the grand scheme of things it’s a relatively minor thing and it does not take away from the look of the work, which is pristine. But it would have been a nice-to-have. So the bottom line is: Mark is a very talented craftsman who delivers well-made and elegant pieces but be sure to state your specifications very specifically upfront.

Mark was easy to work with and my husband liked his new knife very much!
