My name is Jake Elenbaas. I have been making knives since 6/03. I retired in 01/2000 after 35 years in the tool & die trade. We moved in 2/04 to Hernando Beach, FL, where we live today.
I build a variety of fixed blades in several styles and different handle materials. The style and feel of a blade is something that you can design or use mine. The types of steel can run from carbon steel through the stainless series. I also work quite a bit with Damascus from several makers. I also make a gents folder. The blade material can be ordered and the scale material can be ordered also. Handle material can be wood, which is always stabilized, stag, mammoth ivory, micarta.
And not just anyone can bring the experience of the working 30-plus years with high quality steel than us at Jakes Blades . I enjoy working with ivory. I do all work in my shop and by hand. I have two belt sanders (2 ×72)—cootie and a KMG with 10" contact wheels. Some of the other equipment that I have is: heat treat oven, drill press, buffer and several small hand tools. If you have any questions, I can be contacted thru the email address or by the phone. Thank you, Jake
