J. Hoffman Knives
I’m a one-man shop in NE Wisconsin, hand-crafting custom knives and sheaths. While I enjoy the grinding, heat treating and finishing of my blades, the part I like best is when a happy customer tells me how much they like their J.Hoffman knife. It brings another level of satisfaction to my work. I’m a Voting Member of The Knifemakers’ Guild
My goal is to produce a beautiful tool that outperforms other knives and looks good while doing it. .
My work has been featured in Blade Magazine, Knife Magazine, Knife Annual, Podcasts, and TV.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I’m always happy to discuss knives.
Please sign up for my newsletter to get special offers, information on new models and first chance at available knives.
Thank You

Popular Knives
Antrim
The Antrim was created as simple knife with a long slender blade. The knife is excellent in the kitchen and fills a void between a paring knife and utility knife. I also have customers that like the long blade for hunting. OAL 9.25″
Clare
The Clare is the latest paring knife design. Slightly smaller than the Derry, and with a narrower blade that allows quick easy cutting.
Armagh
The Armagh is a lightweight sheepsfoot style paring knife. Either flat ground or with a 20′ hollow grind, it makes a great little knife for light work in the kitchen. I can also make this model with a little thicker steel for use as an EDC or first knife for a youngster. OAL:7.25″
