Visit my website for my latest available hand forged knives: www.firecreekforge.com You are looking at a fully custom hand crafted knife made from scratch. From grinding the blade out of a blank piece of steel, to heat treating the blade for edge holding and toughness, to attaching and finishing the handle; I complete every step start to finish for the end result you see in the photos. The blade is 4" long and made of O1 tool steel. It has a flat ground blade that provides excellent cutting clearance while maintaining blade strength. The handle scales are exotic Bocote wood secured with brass pins and epoxy. The leather sheath is hand stitched. This knife will be treasured by any avid hunter or outdoorsman, or anyone who wants a good blade.

All knives unless other wise expressly stated are made to order, one of a kind pieces. They will closely resemble what is pictured.

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.
