June 2008 Custom Corner



Welcome to the Custom Corner.  Here you'll find some of the newest handmade knives by the top knifemakers in the world.  If you're familiar with our "What's New" section in the magazine it's sort of like that.  Only, instead of licking your thumb to turn a page, here you use your mouse to scroll through the knives.  Please don't lick your mouse.

To trade thoughts on these knives or the makers that created them visit the BLADE Knife forums.
