Some certainly do. I’ve had success at shows in Winnipeg. Hoping to expand that success with this show. Expensive knives aren’t for everyone but some get it and are able to support it.

Thanks. I hear ya. Feel like we’ve been perpetually tightening our belts for years now.

In just a few weeks I’ll be heading to Toronto for the One of a Kind show. This is big for me and my hope is that it will further validate my gradual departure from social media as a means of marketing my craft. My one concern? The Canadian economy may look much different in three weeks. 🀞🏻

This is my favourite stage of a knife build. The grinds are done and now the fun of selecting the handle material begins :)

The more time I spend making knives the more I am drawn to simplicity. A blade with a handle. That’s a knife. And this one is available at originhandcrafted.com

I’m feeling patriotic in a way that I never have before. Free shipping is small potatoes, but I appreciate all of the support I’ve had from home over these last 14 years and I wanted to find some small way to express it. So Free Shipping through February!

Hi folks, I’m Marc Liss and I make edges tools, also known as knives. I’m here because Meta treats all knife makers as weapons manufacturers and so I am in constant violations of their trust and safety guidelines. This means I can’t reach new followers and I can’t grow my business. So here I am :)

Hello! I make knives from antique sawmill blades. Every month I release a batch of them to newsletter subscribers first and then they hit my website. This batch will be arriving to subscribers on Wednesday :)
