Mick Penfold, trading as Penfold Knives, has been making knives since late 1999. He has built up an impressive range of the highest quality knives and has been awarded prizes and received recognition worldwide. After living in the U.S. for some years he returned to England in 2003 to settle in Cornwall where he now lives and works.

The Art Knife is a superb piece of work with an Intergral design using Japanese Damascus with 33 layers on either side over a core of VG10. The handle is intricately file worked on all sides and features a Mother of Pearl overlay with nickel silver pins. A sheath is not included.
