Hi from the UK
Good evening all
I'm Matt, a custom knife maker from Kent in the UK. I specialise in kitchen, folding and outdoor knives.
The UK has strict carry laws, meaning that we can only carry non-locking knives with a blade length shorter than 3"
Folding knife wise I make a lot of friction folding knives. I have 4 main patterns that I create. My standard model, a tanto, a kwaiken and the Goliath. The last is a beast of a knife, but the edge still comes in at sub 3" meaning that it is a great fun UK legal pocket carry knife.
I look forward to browsing the pages and hopefully getting to know a few of you better.
Thanks all
Matt

Welcome Matt!
I like the looks of your knives, they look very practical, and well made.

Welcome. Like your work, and the reviews speak for themselves. Great wealth of information here on all things knives, and other subjects as well. Have a peruse through the threads at your leisure.

Re: Hi from the UK
I'm just making friction folders at the moment. Will probably attempt a slip joint at some point next year.
