Custom Knives

Hey all,
I’ve been collecting blades for a few years now, but lately everything feels mass-produced—even the “custom” stuff. I’m on the lookout for custom knives for collectors that actually stand out: weird shapes, rare materials, even borderline art pieces.
Not just looking for function—I want something that tells a story. Ever seen a knife made from an old ship hull or with a handle carved from meteorite? That’s the kind of vibe I’m chasing.
If you know any low-key makers or niche shops that specialize in one-offs or odd commissions, drop them below. I’m ready to add something wild to the case.

Thanks in advance!
