Custom Knives

All handmade knives are custom in the sense that no two will ever be exactly alike. Also, when time permits, I make one-of-a-kind custom knives to sell at knife shows or on my website. But the main focus of my knifemaking is custom knives made to order for the customer.

If you would like a custom knife made specially for you, please contact me at mike@cartercrafts.com or call 502-387-4844. I can do pretty much anything you like. You can choose the size, shape, type of steel, type of finish, handle material, type of guard or pommel, and even design a special sheath.

Do to the popularity of some models I have made, I have set up some Standard Models that you can choose from or use as a starting point for your custom knife. See Standard Models.

Currently, my turnaround time for a custom order is: approximately 3-4 months.
