⚒️ Four distinct builds 🛠️
🌈 Which one matches your aesthetic? 🏳️‍🌈

It's not easy to create something distinct and one-of-a-kind when the basis for our favourite functional art can be found as far back as 3,000 BC* 😬🤯
BUT...
The San Mai and striking Cu Mai steel is forged at the Dane Standen workshop, and the completed designs are finished by just ONE maker, with a whole lot of character 🕺🏽

There is a build here crafted for YOUR hand.
No mass production, we don't specialise in duplicates, we prefer to mix things up CONSTANTLY 💿🔥
We prioritise crafting quality utensils 🍴 with diverse handle geometry, spacer materials, and steel compositions, to ensure there's an artifact 😉 for everyone and anyone!
Whether your space is grounded and historical
(🪾 rugged Burl timbers 🪵)
or
Leans into more wild, high-fantasy decor
(🐘 sleek finished synthetic ivory 🦄)

The Breakdown:
1. Brown Malley Burl | Ebony Spacer | Cu Mai steel (copper, 1084, 15n20)
2. Red Malley Burl | Ebony spacer | Brass spacer | VG10 monosteel
3. Diamond wood | Black G10 & Copper spacers | San Mai steel (1085, 15n20)
4. Ringed gigee | Black G10 & Brass spacers | Elforyn (synthetic ivory) | San Mai steel (1084, 15n20)
