About the Maker

Clark, Howard

Howard Clark is 'Omimi', a most sought after maker of Japanese style sword blades. The creator of the L6 Banite Katana which is hands down the highest performance sword blade in the world. Omimi-san has been a bladesmith for over 30 years. Early on he mastered forging, damascus, and distal symmetry. As Morgan Valley Forge Howard produces knives with organic flow and keen balance. Howard delved deep into the science of metallurgy. Teaching himself how to read isothermal transformation diagrams he began the journey to create what he desired as the best blade. One that was tough; would not chip, crack or break. One that was hard enough to hold it’s edge for prolonged use and still be able to be re-sharpened. Through his research it is said Howard broke more blades deliberately than most knife-makers made. With known steel alloys, controlled temperatures, the test of the metal was in the heat treatment. ABS Master Bladesmith.
