My name is Matt, I'm 23. A grad student at Montana State University in Bozeman. Currently getting my Master of Fine Arts degree in metal smithing. I make everything from damascus knives to elegant mokume game rings and jewelry. Always open to questions, comments, ideas and commissions.

I’ve been trying to crank out as many blades as possible in a few weeks so I can just focus on art for the rest of the semester. If I have about 20 blades I can relax for a bit. Made a new center punch today, ground, drilled, and countersunk six blades today. I also glued up the chefs knife and poked my finger with it while finish grinding it.
