I am also the owner and operator of a knife making supply www.USAknifemaker.com. I have been making knives since 1999, primarily stock removal (stainless steels) but also forged.
I do not take commission orders. This frees me up to explore new techniques and styles of knives I would not otherwise get the chance to. My goals are simple. Make each knife better than the last one and learn and master every aspect of knife making I can.
