Straub, Salem (Promethean Knives)
I'm Salem Straub, the owner-operator of Promethean Knives. I'm located in beautiful Tonasket, Washington, in the heart of scenic Okanogan County. I've been forging knives since 2003, when an off-grid building project first got me into blacksmithing. A lot has changed since those simple days with a hand-cranked charcoal forge and a dirt floor... but my love of the craft and my commitment to turning out the best work possible have only increased. I make a wide range of cutlery, from folding knives to swords. I've always loved to cook, and I've worked in cafe/restaurant/catering businesses as well, so making kitchen cutlery is a natural direction for my work. As a practitioner of sword arts, I also greatly enjoy making longer bladed weapons for practice and display.
