Frequently Asked Questions

 

What kinds of steels do you use on the blades?

I usually use stainless steels. My favorite is M390 and Elmax but sometimes I use other types like N690, Sleipner, AEB-L, 4H13 or some others.

What kinds of materials do you use on the handles?

I usually use G10, micarta, carbon fiber, stabilized woods, exotic woods and also many metals like titanium, bronze, inox or brass and cooper.

Actually I can use many various materials but I tend to avoid any cheap wood and steels with poor water resistance.

58-60 HRC for N690 and AEB-L, 60-62 for Elmax and M390.

Where do you get the names of your knives?

I named my knives from the lizards and amphibians names.

Why? Because I like unique ways to naming and Latin or Greek sounds interesting.

Rarely I use names in English or my native language – Polish.

Why there are no prices on this website?

The problem is technical and legal in nature. Certain things in Polish law require website owners to include terms & conditions section before adding any prices or built-in shop. This might be expensive because it should be done by lawyers and should also be constantly updated. 

The prices are no secret for me, I answer any public or not public question asked on my social media, including pricing but untill I figure out how to do it correctly on my website, you will not find the price here. 

Though all of my available knives with descriptions, photos and prices can be found on polish forum – knives.pl. Please contact me if you need more information.

What about warranty?

If the knife you bought has some defects, just send me a message, I’ll do my best to take care of the issues. I really care about my reputation as a crafstmen so I won’t leave any customer unsatisfied.
