My name is Jacek Kropiwnicki born in 1957. I am a construction technician and I earn my living by making plasters of the highest quality.
I have always been interested in weapons (both white and firearms).
A few years ago, when my health began to bother me, I had to slow down in my professional work. I started to spend the excess of free time at the computer watching knifemakers at work. I was so fascinated by it that I decided to try it myself. It is true that I do not forge, but order steel in specialized, reputable stores or from well-known and recognized blacksmiths in the country and abroad. I stabilize the wood on the handle myself, and it took me more than two years of studies and trials to deepen the knowledge about wood stabilization. I made my first knife without any special tools, only with files and sandpaper. Since then, I have been developing my workshop with both hardware and craftsmanship, gaining knowledge and experience. Today I have a workshop quite decently equipped (though not as I would like) and I spend every free moment there. . Working on new projects gives me real fun and satisfaction. Moreover, it teaches patience and calms me down a lot.
