Der Messerschmied
works as a blacksmith and the tools he uses to manufacture his knives are mostly self-made. His hammer, gas-forge, and even his belt grinder are all products of his crafting skills.
“It makes me feel free and independent”.
He describes his knives to be an expression of his own perception, using the composition and expression of the shape in combination with certain materials to create an inspired object, that strives to do the task it’s used for by the customer, proper justice.
“If I weren’t a blacksmith, I might have become an arts therapist!”
