Made-To-Measure

Reg Barber is an Indigenous artisan in the Pacific Northwest. After shaping handles on a custom CNC lathe, Reg hand-sands and polishes each one to a beautiful, soft finish.

Bases are crafted on a precision CNC lathe by second-generation machinist John Kiousis. They are then hand-finished by bladesmith Jim Spathis on his purpose-built finishing station.
