General Knife Design and Construction
In designing my knives I draw upon my years of experience in the wilderness of Northwestern Ontario, trapping, fishing, hunting, canoeing, camping, and working with my hands. Read more about my background.
My approach to knife design is to combine simplicity, pleasing lines, and utility with quality materials and good craftsmanship. I want to provide my customers with functional, yet beautiful pieces of cutlery.
You can learn more about the materials that go into a handmade Beebe knife, or you can take a virtual tour of my shop and get a chance to see in more detail how my knives are made.
Here are some of the main features of my hunting, fillet, kitchen, and woodcarving knives:
- Fixed blades only
- Made by the stock removal method (all the larger knives)
- Forged blades (woodcarving knives)
- 3/4 tang, full tang, and narrow tang designs
- Blades either hollow ground or flat ground
- Blade finishes available include matte-grey sandblasted finish, brushed satin finish, and mirror finish
- Blade hardness - about RC-58-59 (I do my own heat treating)
- Fully sharpened and ready to use
- My own sturdy, handmade sheath included (hunters and fillets). Learn more about my knife sheaths and visit my sheath gallery page to see a variety of sheath styles.
Besides offering a comprehensive line of standard models in my hunting, fillet, kitchen, and woodcarving knife categories, I am also happy to accept custom orders as well. We can then more closely tailor your knife and/or sheath to fit your needs. So, if you don’t see quite what you’re looking for here, do feel free to ask.
