With a passion for making beautiful materials and a dedication to craftsmanship, we strive to provide our customers with the highest quality handle materials available.
Founded in 2018 by Matt Halpin in Atlanta, our store has quickly become a trusted name in the knife industry. We specialize in offering unique and exquisite wood and resin creations that showcase the natural beauty of various wood species, as well as bold casting techniques.
Our wide range of scales include segmented sets using exotic wood species such as Gaboon Ebony and Chechen Burl, as well as a number of hybrid designs including elements like metal leaves and meshes. Each piece is carefully selected and crafted to ensure the utmost quality and attention to detail.

We understand that the right knife scales can enhance both the functionality and aesthetics of a knife, and we take pride in providing our customers with one-of-a-kind pieces that meet their exact specifications.

We believe that the beauty of our scales lies in its unique patterns, colors, and textures, and we strive to preserve and highlight these natural characteristics in our materials.
