CUSTOM 
CHEF KNIFE

Every chef knife I make comes with a never ending story. Each bespoke piece is meant to be cherished as an heirloom cutting blade to be used for a lifetime as well as a unique work of art. Make every culinary journey more meaningful with a blade made specifically for you.

Let’s create a work of art together.



I invite you to collaborate with me to craft a chef knife that’s custom-made just for you or for someone special. Together, we'll select the materials, use the appropriate techniques, and apply unique finishes to create a chef knife that is both a functional tool and a work of art, tailored to your preferences.

Our collaborative process will take at least four months, resulting in a bespoke knife that excels in both aesthetics and functionality.
