Our Knives
Handmade by Cartecay Cutlery
Our handmade knives are designed, shaped, heat-treated, finished, and assembled in-house in Ellijay, Georgia. Each knife is built individually rather than produced on an assembly line, so minor differences in dimensions, finish, and handle appearance are part of the process.
We focus on practical designs, dependable steels, comfortable handles, and finishes intended to hold up to real use. Some knives are available ready to ship, while others may be made to order with the estimated production time shown on the product page.
The Sierra is our compact everyday fixed blade. Standard Sierra models feature G10 handles and AEB-L or 14C28N steel, while the Sierra Workman uses canvas or linen micarta and 1084 or 80CrV2 High Carbon steel for a more traditional, utility-focused feel.
Custom Orders / Repairs
Custom orders are available on a limited basis. Blade style, steel, handle materials, colors, finishes, sheath options, and other details can be tailored to the project. Contact us to discuss what you have in mind, current availability, pricing, and estimated lead time.
Repairs and re-handling work are also considered on a case-by-case basis.
