Steve Schultz started making hand-made knives as a part-time maker in 1988 while living in Acworth, GA. He has always been an avid outdoorsman and has had an appreciation for knives since his youth. He purchased his first hand-made knife in 1976 while back-packing in Alaska, but it wasn’t until 12 years later until he tried his hand at crafting his own. He makes all his knives by what is commonly known as the “stock removal” method. His Damascus is forged at a friend’s shop who is an ABS Journeyman smith. His knives have been sold and used by hunters from Alaska to Florida and from Australia to Africa.
Steve and his family now reside in West Fork, Arkansas where he continues to make custom knives on a limited part-time basis.
