Precision knife and tool sharpening + restoration.
Handcrafted objects for the kitchen and home from ethically sourced and reclaimed hardwoods.

Exceptional Craftsmanship.
Generational Durability.

Every object has a story. Some are tools with long histories of service and companionship; a patina of divots and smooth-worn handles hint at the secrets they hold. Other objects are newly remade from centuries-old wood once used for some other purpose. None are alike, yet all are kindred. Each one is at the same time ancient and modern, ready to tell a new story that will be passed on for generations in your home.

Customer Reviews

“I purchased a walnut cutting board and spatula set as a wedding gift for my nephew and his bride. The exquisite finish Paul put on the pieces took my breath away. His work is a lifetime gift.”

— Duff P.

“Paul’s eye for design precision is phenomenal. He created raised panel detail for my bedroom walls from locally sourced alder. The effect was exactly what I wanted. His cuts were so precise that the boards could stay in place before he nailed them to the wall!”

— Vicki R.

“I brought Paul a totally abused cleaver. Its structure was still good but had been completely neglected for decades. The metal was rusted and pitted; the wood handle was intact but in terrible shape. Amazingly, he brought it back to life; now it’s a showpiece.”

— John L.
