About Dan
Dan Lewis started making knives in 2017 and received his Journeyman Smith status from the American Bladesmith Society in 2024. Dan appeared on the History Channel’s “Forged In Fire” (Season 9) and is well-known for his skillfully crafted Damascus Copper Hunting knives which were featured in Blade Magazine (October Issue 2024).
"I hunt elk, deer and javalina in public lands of the desert southwest and started making knives with the goal of producing a superior field knife for serious outdoor enthusiasts. I forged my first knife from a chisel I found in an old tool chest in Arizona, and then I never stopped. Hundreds of knives later I'm still trying to perfect the ultimate cutting tools. I'm a member of the American Bladesmith Society, studying with several Master Bladesmiths - "sharpening" my skills with the best forging and bladesmithing techniques. I love helping others who have an interest in bladesmithing to become makers.
