A fillet knife?
“Sharky,” a large fillet knife, has a CPM-154 steel blade with a hand-rubbed mirror polish. The handle was made from Norwegian spruce cone cast in urethane and has a toothy little face that grins back at the wielder. Cote Custom Knives at CustomMade.com
Something that can cut through large welding cable?
In this video, Guillaume’s customer, an Artic diver, is testing a custom knife made from CPM S30V stainless steel with a Rockwell scale hardness of 60.
Guillaume will handcraft your custom knife to your specifications from the finest materials. His blades are heat-treated and made from steels such as CPM series stainless steel, D2, and Damascus stainless steel. His custom-designed handles are made from stabilized wood burls, sheep or stag horn, and even mammoth ivory.
Guillaume’s passion for knife making was sparked in the Canadian Arctic in 1981 when a co-worker on the Distant Early Warning line showed him a knife he had made from a discarded saw blade. His own first handmade knife, he recalls, “was fashioned with old truck springs, heated with a torch, and hammered out until it took on the shape of a knife.” Take a look at more examples of the unique custom knives Guillaume has since fashioned featured in the Cote Custom Knives CustomMade portfolio.

I like knives and TommaHawks. Most of my knives are 4″ Blades and are carried on my belt in a sheath in the open, I have many knives,but it’s usually the Case xXx that I carry every day. I would be interested in a hand crafted knife with 4″ fixed blade,if you have anything like that to show,I’d like to see it,also any TommaHawks,Throwing TommaHawks or Functional Daily use Hatchets. Hit me back with what you have,and lets see how much money I can send your way.
