Visit us at www.firecreekforge.com for my latest hand forged knives. The "Mini 'Muk". This little guy can just about do it all. 3.25" cutting edge with an overall length about 7 3/4". The spine and tang is 1/8" thick. Is the Mini 'Muk a skinning knife? A carving knife? A food prep knife? An "EDC" knife? The answer is yes to all the above, and more. I make the Mini Muk from quality high carbon steel. You can choose from 1095 high carbon steel or O1 tool steel. The Mini 'Muk comes with a quality hand stitched leather sheath. Thank you for shopping Fire Creek Forge.

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.
