About the Maker

Mutz, Jeff

Jeff Mutz has been making handmade knives since 1998. He resides in Rancho Cucamonga, CA where he designs and creates his custom knives. He makes knives by both methods, forging and stock removal. Jeff then heat-treats and tempers his knives to a Rockwell hardness of 59-61c depending on what the knife will be used for. A cryogenic freeze between tempering cycles is part of the process on most of the steels he uses. On all Jeff's fixed blade knives, the cutting edge is hardened and the spine and tang are drawn to a spring hardness for maximum strength and toughness. His knives are made from high carbon tool steels but he also works with stainless steels such as CTS-XHP, CPM154, S35VN, S30V, BG-42 and 440C. Jeff is currently forging his own Damascus in the "Random" pattern using 1095 and 15N20 steel.
