Making "custom" knives, custom
Welcome to CK Knife and Tool. My main goal is to always achieve a high level of customer satisfaction with the knives that are created. This simple approach has effectively fueled my growth. When I started out, I was a simple hobbyist but now I am a full-time knife maker and YouTuber.
​
The journey of building a knife business and a YouTube channel has been quite something and I would like to first say thank you to everyone that has been following along on this journey. I would also like to extend my appreciation to those that are still showing support for me as well as other small businesses throughout America. It's the little things that mean a great deal.
​
The shop is complete and I am back in working on knives. Sadly though our country is heading in a rather uncomfortable future. Rising prices in energy and food has affected us all. I completely understand that not everyone has the money to buy a handmade custom knife right now. So, with that said, I have taken on a primary career and will be keeping CK Knife and Tool as a more part-time endeavor for now. If you wish to keep up with what's happening in the shop follow along on Instagram and YouTube as well as stop back here periodically and check to see what may be available. I am also taking email orders with set delivery dates. If you are interested in a knife, please look over the website or feel free to email me here.
​
Thank you for stopping by.

ABOUT ME
I'm a former U.S. Marine and a former Law Enforcement Officer. I began making knives back in 2014 when my good friend and mentor, Jeff Conti first walked me through the process. After my first knife, it just went crazy. Knife after knife I just kept making, practicing and designing. Staying true to what I was taught, "Form follows function", and to not get caught up in all the gimmicks and fads surrounding the knife world.
Now, 9 years later my family and I have left the Pacific Northwest and rooted ourselves here in Gillette, Wyoming. After spending most of 2021 moving and rebuilding CK Knife and Tool I now am in the process to become Wyoming's premier knife maker.
But besides making knives and running a successful YouTube channel, I have become an Ambassador for the Made in America Movement and work as a Brand Ambassador for Guana Equipment Roof Top Tents and Awnings.
​
Please take a look at the knives I have made to-date as well as checking out my YouTube channel for customer knives, gear and tools as well as a more personal look into who and what CK Knife and Tool is.

Thanks,
Chad
