Knife Blocks

$150

Crafted from Phillipine mahogany and bamboo, these knife blocks are a striking addition to any kitchen. A great combination of beauty and functionality, the bamboo has enough space to shift around 6-8 knives, and is tall enough (8.25" inside depth) to accommodate even the biggest of chef's knives. Approx. 7" x 6" box, 9" high. Finished with beeswax on the inside and tung oil on the outside, with a wax finished bottom for non-scratch movement.

Furniture, woodturnings, installations, and reproductions. Made in Grand Rapids with solid wood and love.

I came to furniture and woodworking the long way through general construction, spending many years rehabbing urban rowhomes on the staff of Sandtown Habitat for Humanity in Baltimore, where I was forced to think abstractly and learned to love solving problems and working within restricted budgets.

This translates well to the work I do now, where the projects I love taking on the most involve critical thinking, imagination, and the challenge (and joy) of finding just the right solution to a tricky situation. The projects I love best involve elements I've never done before, which both make me a better carpenter and produce my most creative works.

I try my best to use sustainably harvested and local lumber, or reclaim lumber from barns, houses, and factories around me. I use solid hardwoods, not only for their natural beauty, but because it fits best with my own woodworking philosophies of building to last generations and reflecting the natural properties and character of different wood species. I aim for simplicity and elegance in my work, employing traditional joinery when it's needed, not simply for ornament. I love what I do, and hope you do too.
