About Dysart Knives

I make heirloom quality knives in my shop in Spokane, Washington. My vision is to provide my customers with tools which empower them to shape their world and last a lifetime. I value dependability, passion, attentions to detail, and resourcefulness and I incorporate those values into my designs. My knives are more than just a tool. They are sculpture for your kitchen and art you can use.

Philosophy and Intent

Sustainability: Our lives are filled with disposable objects. My goal for every knife is to create a beautiful and functional tool that will last beyond my lifetime. Dysart Knives are built with high quality materials and tested construction techniques.

Tradition: Knives hold a special place in the human consciousness. The knife may have been the earliest tool our ancestors created. Although we live in the modern world I believe every person has the need for at least one high quality knife. A knife is more than a tool. It represents our resourcefulness and ability to shape our surroundings. A good knife increases pleasure and productivity in the kitchen, on the job, or in outdoor recreation. My work pays homage to the rich history of knife makers by using traditional forging techniques while incorporating modern materials and designs.
