About the Maker
Buchanan, Thad
"I started making knives in 1986 when Bill Harsey invited me to work with him in his shop. I attended my first knife show in 1987 where I won Best New Maker award at the OKCA show. After that I was hooked, I spent as much time in the shop as I could and made a point of attending a show every few months. Unfortunately, life got busy in the early 90's and I put shows on the back burner. I continued to make knives for local customers and the slower pace allowed me to focus on improving the quality of my work. I was fortunate to live in a location with several accomplished makers. The three who helped me the most were Bill Harsey, Bob Lum and Ron Lake. Every knife I make reflects something I have learned from these three makers and I am grateful for their willingness to share their hard earned expertise. In 2005 I retired from a career in law enforcement and was able to realize my long time dream of making knives on a full time basis." Thad is the father of Zac Buchanan.
