Master craftsman Paul Jones has made 3 knives for me They are the best ones I own. Deepwoods Ventures makes first class ,top quality products. Best knives made by good people.

Love my new sloyd knife and hook knife. Great quality workmanship. This is the second purchase I've made from you folks! I am very satisfied. Thanks very much!!

Just purchased my 4th knife. These knifes are great and easy to use and sharpen. And if you happen to damage a blade just mail it back and it will be fixed right away. I would recommend trying one for yourself. Best carving knifes in my box.

All of the blades were excellent and all fit well into the hadles I made. Since recieving them they ate the only knifes i use. I'm extremely happy.

Really like this blade. Short, slim and flat grind are perfect for my detail work. The handle is a bit small for my arthritic hands. So if I’m going to be using it for awhile I wrap it with the cut protection tape. Gives the extra thickness and a better grip. Works for me.

I have only been carving for about 6 months. This is my second DV knife. They are a joy to use and look great too. I’m very happy with my choice. Keep doing great work DV.

I’m a novice carver and didn’t know what to expect from this knife. It has become my go-to knife when I start a carving. Beautifully made, sturdy, sharpens right up stropping it frequently. Thank you for offering such a sloyd.

This is the third knife that I have from Deepwoods. These are superior blades that take and keep a great edge with stropping and come sharp. The curve is just right for good chips. I do prefer to make my own handles wider than the one I had maker supplied.

Very sharp. Round tang made it a super easy build. This is my 6th Deepwoods purchase.

Very sharp with an easy to build round tang. Had great success with my first bowl.

This is my 4th or 5th knife and they are all my favorite. They cut great, hold an edge and are comfortable to use….highly recommend these knifes.

Paul's bladesmithing quality really is second to none. I'm near enough to his shop that I picked up my order from him. His modest-size shop houses a serious blacksmithing operation. I was able to see many types of his blades, everything he makes will stand with the best of what's out there in the world.

I'm a nearly 30-year woodturner, so running hand-held edge cutting tools left or right-handed is second nature (I'm a righty). I'd seen a TWCA cam user online using both left and right-handed TWCA and thought it would be an advantage to own both, so I bought both left and right-handed 50mm TWCA blades. (I'd suggest this idea to to any TWCA user, the two orientations compliment each other to avoid awkward cutting strokes. It takes just a bit of practice to become good with both versions.) Paul does beautiful work, and they perform really well- I am very pleased with my purchase.

I made 1-1/8" x 1-3/8 rectanglar handles, then knocked off the corners as octagons and wiped on just one coat of linseed oil- no film finish. That size was loosely based on other tool handles in my shop, so nothing scientific, but the shape and grip works well for twisting the edge into wood. So far I've left the handles long at 24" but will shorten as I learn to use them more, and adjust the profiles as needed.

Thanks, Paul!

This knife checks all the boxes for me. Flat grind, holds an edge and was a blade only purchase allowing me to customize a handle to accommodate my arthritic hands. Very satisfied customer.

Purchased for carving Dala horses traditionally. A heritage thing. Very early learning stages for using the knife, so far so good. Holds the edge beautifully, cuts smoothly and only stabbed myself twice. Great knife, thanks for your work.

I'm really loving these knives I think I already bought every style and I'm super happy with spending my money here.
