In Johann’s own words
Johann (Joe1 Knife & Tool). My knife making journey started over 30 years ago. I am an active part-time knifemaker. All my knives start with a sketch on paper the old school way.
My biggest influences is: to ratter to have a knife and not need it, then need a knife and not have it – no matter where you are and then making food over an open fire.
Since I have started making knives actively, I have made fixed blade hunting/utility knives, classic slip joint folders with a modern twist, as well as Japanese style chefs knives.
Written for this directory in 2020.
