Crimson Scale Forge, LLC

Crimson Scale Forge, LLC Blacksmithing & Handmade Knives I'm a craftsman with an inclination to work with metal, often by using the traditional technique of blacksmithing.

I'm not opposed to using more modern techniques when they benefit the product, or allow me to reduce the cost for my customers. I created Crimson Scale Forge, LLC as a means to express my desire to work with my hands since my primary income comes from sitting at a computer. As a side business, I didn't have to focus on making a vast income. This was great as I have taken my time to learn and devel

op my skills as a Knifemaker and learning blacksmithing, a natural progression in my metal working career. I started with knives as I figured they were small and assumed the tools and space requirements would be small as well, given I had a small space to work with. I have since learned that I was naive, though one can make knives with a minimum set-up, it is not efficient at all. Through funding from my primary income and spending every dime I've earned through my business, I now have a dedicated shop space to make knives and forge misc. crafts by hand. Which I spend my time in as much as possible in the evenings and weekends. My goal for my business is to take it from a hobby, to a self-sufficient shop that steadily grows until the time comes it can support my family. I wish to build a brand that is recognized as quality products, and superior designs. I will continue to learn and practice new methods of creating useful items with my hands. My desire being to create products that my customers enjoy using and are proud to own. You can help us grow by following on Instagram and sharing us with your friends. This is the best way to stay up to date with the latest from our shop. If you like one of our products yet want something similar, please don't hesitate to reach out. Email me for your custom designs for an estimate. I only take work that I want to do, and have the capability to, so payment will not be due until the work is ready.

Recently added some work to the website. I've decided to try out some model names for designs I want to keep making. This one will be called the Neophron, after the Egyptian vulture.

I started this knife months ago and nearly gave up on it. This handle material was tricky to work with and took the full extent of my patience. Therefore it'll likely be the last time I use this blue canvas micarta. Get it while you can.

Check out the website for availability and other work.

I've been inactive lately due to having much going on. I'm very sad to share that we've lost a very special loved one this week.

Carrie Mel was my first dog that I truly bonded with as a puppy and we had 14 years of her giving us joy and anxiety (at times). She thought she protected our house from everything ranging from random noises outside (like the wind) to animals appearing on the TV and everyone that set foot in the house. However, everyone that got to know her knew she was incredibly sweet, caring and lazy by default. Great companion any time one of us was feeling down.

She will be greatly missed and we love her more than I know how to express in words. I hope she can rest without worry or pain now.
