ABOUT WILLIAM ALEXANDER KNIVES
I began my journey into knifemaking in January 2023, after purchasing a small Mr. Volcano forge from Amazon. I had been watching knifemaking and machining videos for years, and thought it was finally time to take the plunge and try it myself. I started a workshop in my garage and have spent the last few years building it up, honing my craft, and learning every step of the way.
I've lived in Oklahoma all my life, and am a proud member of the Choctaw and Chickasaw tribes. I strive for both form and function in every knife I create. I believe in the philosophy that a knife is a tool first, and a weapon second.
MISSION
My mission is to honor and celebrate the legacy of indigenous knife-making traditions while pushing the boundaries of modern craftsmanship and design. By combining heritage techniques with modern creativity, I aim to create knives that are not only functional tools but also works of art that can both be used and admired.
Above all else, my philosophy is that "a knife is a tool first, and a weapon second." With a focus on meticulous craftsmanship, artistic vision, and unwavering dedication, I strive to bring forth timeless pieces that embody the spirit of the indigenous community.
