Fire Creek Forge (home of Elijah Williams Knives) provides quality, one of a kind custom made knives and metal items, hand made from scratch.
I have been making knives for about 20 years. I first got into it after reading a book on knife making at my library, and I taught myself from there, gleaning information from other books, and the web.
Building knives was a good match for another early interest of mine, the outdoors, woods, and back country. I love the idea of being able to walk into a trackless wilderness with only a good knife, and have the skills to live comfortably. I haven't quite reached that level, but I continue to study and practice these skills today, and it serves well to inform my blade design and construction.
I also began forging some years back, and I enjoy making useful and decorative items with the simple and old methods of working iron and steel.
Hands down the most beautiful knife I have ever laid hands on. I highly recommend the wood honey mesquite handle. Thanks Elija!
Just received latest knife. Looks and feels amazing and excited to use it on first canoe trip of the season.
Great knife, thanks for keeping me informed, knife is well made, will be using a lot this hunting season. Will purchase here again.
Elijah is by far the nicest and easiest and professional person let alone artisans I've ever worked with. His attention to detail is amazing. He doesn't just make the product he's a part of it with his collaboration and experience. I wanted a Zombie killing knife that when plunged into their head came through with enough blade left to put an apple on.When I received my knife it was exactly that and more. I was so impressed I nearly soiled myself. The attention to detail was amazing, fare nicer than I anticipated. I can't believe the amount of work that went into this knife for the price I paid was incredible. I would highly recommend that you place your order right away and get in on the ground floor prices now. I see Elijah taking off and your going to be on a long waiting list. He listens to every thing you ask for and gets involved and advises you and makes suggestions to improve your project to add quality not found everywhere these days. I'm going to commission him to make me another knife that's how much I love his work.
While the project was a bit delayed, the final knife, a gift to my son, exceeded expectations. Beautiful workmanship and something he will always treasure. Have ordered a knife for myself. Recommend highly.
