Handmade Knives with Custom Sheaths
Period Pieces a Specialty & Now Leather Bags

Welcome to Bud & Tudy Smith's Custom Knives and Sheaths. WE SPECIALIZE IN PERIOD STYLE, but we do make some simple hunters so please enjoy touring the whole site. Because only two views of each knife or bag is shown, feel free to email for more pictures to see greater detail if need be. All of the work on our knives is done entirely by us. We make one at a time, by hand. Come back often to view our site as others are added as they are finished. Knife blades are differentually heat treated here at the shop, which means your knife will be shipped very sharp, hold a good edge and be easy to maintain in it's original state. Only high carbon steel is used, you will not find a "shiny" knife here. We use only natural materials, glass, clay and antique beads (NO PLASTICS EVER). All of our natural products are purchased from legal sources. Each sheath is custom made for each knife. Elk rawhide and buckskin usually cover a vegetable tanned leather liner. Beading is hand worked by Ms.Tudy directly onto the leather in tiny glass seed beads that reflect old time colors. However if you see a knife you like but want a different sheath we can usually accomodate that and decorate it to your liking.
..THANKS FOR LOOKING AND I HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR TOUR, BUD
A short testimonial:
I got the knife today! It's GREAT! I can't wait to use it on a deer, but I'm sure I'll find a few uses for it before then. I'm really impressed with the sharpness. I rubbed some tallow into the sheath and the handle as well. Nice work on both. Mrs. Tudy read my mind on the sheath. I will gladly encourage my friends if they want a knife like this one to give you a call. I very much want to have you do another down the road when my finances allow. You do top notch work at (compared to others I've seen) bargain prices. Thanks to you both, and God Bless You.
Humble Thanks,
Mitch Fulcher/Mommicked
