I have been a knife enthusiast for several decades now starting with my use of the good old swiss army knife as a boy scout. Since then I have always been working in the woods clearing quad trails at the family farm and cutting down trees for firewood. I have been an avid outdoorsman, interested in mountain hiking, camping, canoeing, fishing, hunting, winter camping, bushcrafting etc… Over the years, I have owned and used knives from most of the major knife companies and many from custom knife makers. Owning and using so many knives has helped me develop a good idea of what works and what doesn’t in the real world. I have been making my own hand made knives for more than 10 years using good old high carbon steels, stainless steels and the so called high alloy super steels. I hope you enjoy my knife designs and I’m always interested to hear your feedback so we can produce the best knives at an affordable price point. Don’t hesitate to contact me at auroraborealisknives@gmail.com.

What’s the new design you’re working on in a recent video where the knife is thinner behind the edge. I have a Kodiak. Love it. But I am searching for a big knife that’s slicier - thinner behind the edge.

I always thought the Enzo’s Scandi grind was to obtuse. Combine that with whatever secondary bevel you have put on yours, makes them no fun to work with. While WTG makes a pretty though convex edge, I find it a hinderance on smaller knives and it tends to make their large choppers glance off things rather than bite in...Just Say’n
