Terms, Conditions & Important Information

By using this website and purchasing from my shop, you’re agreeing to the following.

Handmade & One-of-a-Kind Originals

Everything you see here is made start to finish by my own two hands in a small Oklahoma workshop, using mostly hand tools and traditional methods.

No patterns. No templates. No mass production.

Because of that:

  • Every piece is completely unique

  • Marks, variations, and imperfections are part of the character—not flaws

  • Nothing will ever look factory-made or perfectly uniform

These are intentionally created in a primitive, mountain man style, inspired by the American frontier. If you’re looking for something polished and precise, this probably isn’t it. If you appreciate something that feels like it came from another time, you’re in the right place.

Every piece is a true original, a collectable piece of art — what you’re holding is the only one like it.

Use & Intent

These pieces are fully functional and sharp—but I create them as works of art first.

Many people choose to display or collect them, and that’s honestly how I believe they’re best appreciated. If you choose to use it, understand it was made in a traditional, primitive way—not engineered like modern production gear.

I do not recommend batoning, chopping, or throwing.


Care & Responsibility

These pieces are made from natural materials and require proper care.

  • Keep in dry conditions

  • If exposed to moisture, dry thoroughly

  • Leather may benefit from occasional treatment (such as a waterproofing conditioner)

  • Carbon steel can rust—apply a light coat of olive oil as needed

Take care of it, and it will take on a life of its own over time.

Safety & Liability

These pieces are sharp and should be handled with care and respect.

By purchasing, you agree that:

  • You are responsible for safe handling and use

  • You understand the risks involved

  • I am not liable for injuries, damages, or misuse

Use good judgment and treat it with the respect it deserves.

You must be 18 years or older to purchase.

Product Representation

I do my best to accurately photograph and describe each piece, but:

  • Lighting may affect color

  • Screens may display tones differently

  • Natural materials will vary in appearance

Each listing includes a size reference. Please make sure you understand what you’re purchasing, including sheath style (neck or belt carry).

All Sales are Final

Every piece I make is one of a kind—handcrafted start to finish using no patterns or templates. Because of that, all sales are final. I don’t accept returns or exchanges.
I do my best to show each piece honestly through photos and description, so you know exactly what you’re getting. If you ever want more photos or have questions before buying, just reach out—I’m always glad to help.

Before You Purchase:

Please make sure that you have looked over all photos carefully and you understand each piece is handmade and will not be factory-perfect. Make sure that you are comfortable with the natural variations and imperfections that come with primitive techniques, tools and materials that I use.

I truly appreciate your understanding—and your support.
