Steel Dog Knives

FINAL 50 SPOTS!

We’re down to the last 50 spots, and with Father’s Day right around the corner, I wanted to do something special for everyone supporting Steel Dog Knives.

Every $10 waffle spot you purchase qualifies for 50% back as store credit (up to $100) that can be used on any in-stock knife during my Father’s Day Sale.

Don’t forget to use coupon code DAD2026 to save 20% off all in-stock knives.

Here’s an example:

Let’s say you’ve had your eye on one of my $200 paring knives.

• Buy 20 waffle spots = $200
• Receive $100 in store credit
• Use DAD2026 and the knife drops to $160
• Apply your $100 credit

For a total of $260, you’d get:

• A handcrafted Steel Dog Knives paring knife
• 20 entries in the current waffle
• The satisfaction of supporting a small American maker

And who knows… you might end up with two new knives instead of one.

If you’ve been thinking about getting in, now’s the time before these final 50 spots are gone.

Good luck, and thank you all for supporting Steel Dog Knives and my passion for building one-of-a-kind handcrafted blades. I appreciate every one of you!

I just got back from my first trip to Blade Atlanta, and what an experience it was.

While I didn’t sell as many knives as I had hoped, I had an absolute blast. I met a ton of talented knifemakers, got to handle some incredible work, talked knives for three straight days, and made some great new connections. For a first-time trip, I’d call it a win.

Now that I’m back, I’m thinking about running another wraffle, and I want your input!

What type of knife would YOU like to see in the next Wraffle?

🔥 Chef Knife
🔥 2-Piece Matching Set
🔥 BBQ Slicer
🔥 Filet Knife
🔥 Mini Santoku
🔥 Paring Knife
🔥 Damascus Piece
🔥 Something Else?

Drop your vote in the comments, or tell me what specific style you’d love to have a chance at winning.

Who knows… your suggestion might end up being the next Wraffle prize.

One of the coolest products at Blade Show Atlanta 2026 — Contender Machine Works. Darren has engineered some genuinely game-changing tooling for bladesmiths.

The water-cooled waterfall platen completely eliminates heat buildup by circulating water through the platen with the ability to spray directly onto the belt or workpiece. Ceramic liner on the flat section, hardened D2 insert on the radius with quick-change capability for different plunge lines. Never seen anything like it.

The ultra-thin 1/16” AR500 platen is equally impressive — built to grind inside a 3/16” open-end slot and tough enough to take the abuse. Flip it around and you have a short slack belt grinding area.

Got to watch Neels Van Den Berg pick one up on the spot. That says it all.

Saving the best for last. 8.75” gyuto in Damasteel’s newest pattern, Jörmungandr.

The handle brings together copper, hornbeam, Trustone, and Tasmanian blackwood sourced from Dustin Knight. This pattern is something else in person. All remaining supplies from Texas Farrier Supply — makers use code STEELDOG10 for 10% off. Heat treatment done in my Hot Shot kiln, link in bio.
