Heorot knives

Nick Turner began making damascus steel / pattern welded knives twenty five years ago in a tiny shed at a student flat. Since then he has made quality medieval style knives and daggers, hunting and kitchen knives and a couple of swords. Now based in a sizeable workshop in rural mid-Canterbury, New Zealand, he is again creating beautiful blades for people who value authentic materials and craftsmanship.
