Some of my work...

[Tom Krein]

Figured I would post a few pics of some of my work and share a bit about me.... :D

I've been full time for 14 years. I worked for legendary knifemaker Bob Dozier back in the mid-1990's and then ran A.G. Russell's Custom Shop for almost three years after that. I have been on my own for about 8 years now.

I build strictly stock removal knives, no forging (I'm not smart enough!). My favorite steels are D2, A2, CPM 3V and CPM M4; with that said I am not a steel snob and feel that most cutlery steels will make a VERY satisfactory knife IF the geometry and heat treat are right.

Here are the pics...

Yeah You could sell those for sure on here. Heck you could even team up with a one of the very talented leather workers on there and have them make leather sheaths for them.
