About the Maker
Buxton, Bill
"I started making knives as a hobby in 1991 using the metal removal method. A few years later I became fascinated with the art of forging; there was just something about taking a plain piece of steel and turning it into a working knife using fire and a hammer. I quickly became hooked on forging and one thing led to another. In 1999 I became a full time bladesmith, and the passion for making knives is as strong as ever. About 95% of all my blades are hand forged and I work with several different high carbon steels: 52100, W-2, 1080, 15n20, O-1 and a couple different powdered metals. I make my own Damascus and mosaic Damascus and I use nothing but the finest materials available. I also do all my own heat treating." Bill is an ABS Master Bladesmith.
