Bifrost Blacksmithing
Jake Beimler and Joron Whitton- Local blacksmiths and artists creating one of a kind jewelry and blades in Ketchikan, Alaska. No charge!
We are a few people devoted to carrying on the old way of blacksmithing. We hand forge each blade from recycled high carbon steel. No power hammer, no plasma cutters, no factory blanks and no glued on handles. We handle each blade with locally obtained antler. Every knife is unique and no factory sheath will do. We custom make each sheath to fit each new knife. Our knives are backed by our guarantee. If it chips, breaks, or just needs a good cleaning, you bring it to us and we'll fix it.
