FAQ

​

  • Q: How can I contact you?

  • A: You can reach me at aldgracole@outlook.com or on FB at Alden Cole Handmade Knives.

  • Q: How can I buy a knife from you?

  • A: Custom or not? If you are ordering a custom knife, contact me directly. If you are wanting to buy a knife you've seen that is available, email me and we'll go from there (generally very simple, I send knife, you send money.)

  • Q: How long does it take you to make a knife for me?

  • A: It depends. I don't have a set time, but unless you specifically need it soon, it will be finished when it gets finished. Trying to work to a timetable often just doesn't work out, and puts unneeded stress on both of us.

  • Q: Do you watch Forged in Fire

  • A: No, I have not and therefore can not give an honest opinion of it.

  • Q: Will you work with this material I already have?

  • A: Probably!

  • Q: Why does your site have such a weird adress?

  • A: Wix made me do it. But I am still grateful that they let me set this site up for free.

  • Q: How should I get started making knives?

  • A: Join a forum, buy some 1080 steel, read the $50 knife shop, practice, make ugly knives, make pretty knives. You can watch Youtube videos, but realize that many are made just for entertainment. Also, read https://aldgracole.wixsite.com/aldencoleknives/post/how-i-make-a-fulltang-knife.

  • Thank you for being here! I will be adding to this list. If you have more questions feel free to ask.
