I am a maker of fine hunting, traditional outdoor knives, folding knives, as well as Tactical blades for Self-Defense, Law Enforcement and Military. I also make martial art training blades of extraordinary materials, fine woods and laminates. My knives are made from the stock removal method utilizing state of the art steels , both high carbon, carbon Damascus, stainless Damascus and stainless steels. Blades are heat treated, tempered and in some cases cryogenic treated to produce blades of optimum strength that retain sharpness. Heat treat process is done in my shop with digital controlled equipment and is the cornerstone of successful blade making. If you are interested in buying a fine knife for yourself or as a gift please contact me at timleeknifemaker@yahoo.com. Images on the following pages are representative of some of my work. Not a catalog or specific reference, my work is not limited to just these styles. Please leave good contact information, thanks for stopping by.

I began making self defense wooden training blades in 1996, then moved on to steel at encouragement of my friend Charles Porter- Glory Knifeworks. I have been a lifetime collector of knives of all types from small pocket knives to bowies and sword. I love a sharp piece of steel and try to impart into my blades something special. In general, most are one of a kind pieces. Sometimes I utilize the same blade design, but almost never use the exact components except when asked to. It makes my pieces special very special. I am craftsman, photographer, fishing guide and hunter. My blades are something you can pass down heirloom quality.
