In this series of videos Kyle will be making a 15 inch bowie. This knife is being made for an online course we are offering for sale soon. This course will have several hours of in depth tips and techniques on knife making and how to build a 15 inch bowie. We wanted to take you along the ride with us and keep you up to date on this knife. So we made a special video just for you guys here on YouTube! :)


This video was kind of like a sneak peak of the bowie we are making for the online course. The YouTube version of the "course knife" was 15 minutes long, the actual online course (up to this point) is going to be about 3 to 4 hours of in-depth teachings of what Kyle is doing. We are still videoing it, so there will probably be about 3 parts for the whole YouTube "course knife" series at 10 to 15 minutes per video. I estimate that the over all course will be 6 to 15 hours long. Again, we are still videoing the "course knife", and it takes quite some time to explain things just right so knowing how long the actual online course is going to be can be difficult.





I am a full-time Mastersmith knifemaker, and I love my job! I specialize in forged fixed blade knives and also make many other types of edged art.

In March of 2007, I went to the W.F. Moran School of Bladesmithing in Old Washington, Arkansas where I took a two week class on Intro to Bladesmithing under ABS Mastersmiths Burt Gaston and Greg Neely. This is where I learned how to make a blade that would pass the ABS Journeyman Smith Performance Test, after that I took a class on Handles and Guards under ABS Mastersmith Jim Walker where I learned how to make handles out of stag, exotic woods and many other materials.

In June, 2011 I received my Mastersmith Stamp at the Atlanta BLADE Show. Now that I have been granted my MS certification I have a desire to expand my field and continue learning and teaching what I learn, God has given me all the opportunities and teachers that I’ve had and I thank Him for giving me the ability to do something I love.

Follow me on this epic edged art journey!


Thanks for watching
Enjoy!
