Full time knife and ring maker based in Manitoba, Canada.

I specialize in repurposing antique blade steel to craft high performance knife blades.

In just a few weeks I’ll be heading to Toronto for the One of a Kind show. This is big for me and my hope is that it will further validate my gradual departure from social media as a means of marketing my craft. My one concern? The Canadian economy may look much different in three weeks. 🤞🏻

This is my favourite stage of a knife build. The grinds are done and now the fun of selecting the handle material begins :)

New magnetic wooden racks are now in stock! I craft these from seasoned ash wood and powerful magnets. They mount securely to the wall, providing practical and unique storage for your favourite kitchen tools :)

The more time I spend making knives the more I am drawn to simplicity. A blade with a handle. That’s a knife. And this one is available at originhandcrafted.com

I’m feeling patriotic in a way that I never have before. Free shipping is small potatoes, but I appreciate all of the support I’ve had from home over these last 14 years and I wanted to find some small way to express it. So Free Shipping through February!

Hi folks, I’m Marc Liss and I make edges tools, also known as knives. I’m here because Meta treats all knife makers as weapons manufacturers and so I am in constant violations of their trust and safety guidelines. This means I can’t reach new followers and I can’t grow my business. So here I am :)

Hello! I make knives from antique sawmill blades. Every month I release a batch of them to newsletter subscribers first and then they hit my website. This batch will be arriving to subscribers on Wednesday :)
