Founded in New Mexico and nestled in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Santa Fe Stoneworks is home to some of the most beautiful, handcrafted knives and kitchen cutlery. The founder, Bill Wirtel, follows the idea of tradition that dates back to Native American times. He believes that each knife should signify honor and respect. Elements that are incorporated into each knife are wood, gemstone, and steel. These encompass the knife and transforms the regular cutlery accessories into a unique art piece to add to your kitchen.
Some of the products, such as this vein turquoise scissors knife, has a turquoise river running through the handle. The river almost joins all the materials used to create this symbol of respect and beauty. It's a great collectible gift for the man who appreciates functionality and art.
Each product is created and designed in a century-old adobe ranch house. This just shows the meaning of tradition and sustainability that Santa Fe Stoneworks incorporates with each knife they produce. To learn more about the maker and founder, READ FULL STORY HERE.
