In a disposable world, I build things meant to last.
After I built my house, I felt something I haven't been able to shake: the quiet pride of looking at something that began as an idea in my head and now stands in the real world. I've been chasing that feeling ever since.
Blades Made is my pursuit of the perfect piece. I'm still learning, and I haven't arrived. But every piece gets me closer, and I'd like you to be part of the journey.
Purpose
Every piece exists for a reason, and is made for the way it will actually be lived with.
Design
Proportion, line, and detail considered until nothing is left to chance.
Build Quality
Joinery and finish that hold up for decades, something I'm proud to put my name on.
The work so far
Come along for the pursuit.
Have something you'd like built, an idea you want to talk through, or just want to say hello? Reach out. I'd love for you to be part of what I'm building.
