Welcome to Griffin Made Knives

                                                  A little about myself and the knives I create.

I recycle 5160 spring steel from old automotive leaf springs (currently I am using a batch form a 40's era Willis Jeep and a 70's era Ford 3/4 ton truck, as well as old high carbon content files (the older the better).

All of my knives and swords are one of a kind. I do not use jigs, patterns or templates. Each piece, although similar has it's own distinct characteristics. 

My knives are currently in use across the U.S., in Africa, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

I am a member of the Oregon Knife Collectors Association (OKCA) and have a table at the April show  - table number D04. I have just joined the Montana Knife Association (MKA) and am planning on attending their Missoula MT. show next year.

If you are at either the Eugene show in April , or the Missoula show in August ,  please stop by my table and introduce yourself, I enjoy meeting other knife and sword enthusiasts.

                                                                Live free and be well
