Knife maker contact wanted
I was in touch with a guy in Strathmore (?) and then covid hit & not working much. So |I put it on the back burner.
I sent him an e-mail asking if he still wanted to make a knife for me & got no reply.
I'm working in Lethbridge right now & live in Westlock. So any place between will work.

Search for Matt Rehman on Facebook. Matt makes some very nice knives and would custom make one. He had a booth at the Millarville Christmas market and regularly goes to knife making shows. You can see some of his work on his Facebook page.

Looks like pretty good work on the photos. He has Instagram as well (which I found first).

I had Clint make me 3 knives in the spring / winter. Amazing quality and workmanship.
Suspect he's either backed up or is taking a break for the hunting season, but worth the wait if you can get in touch with him.

If you like carbon steel, damascus pattern knives check out Ray Taber. He's based in Oregon and does fantasic work. He made me a chef knife and made skinners for some of my friends.

I have two knives from Jim Clow, and both are excellent quality. I highly recommend his work. He is in the Brooks area.

I have 1 from Gerrys Blades, he is northwest of Edmonton. Super happy with it so far, and his wife does all the leather work.
