We have a
selection of Custom
Knives from Custom Knife Makers Lynn Dawson and
Dennis Cook from Prescott Valley, Arizona. Our selection of 'Original
Custom Lynn & Cook Knives' are all original, one of a kind designs.
"Lynn has always had a passion for the edge, and began
making knives before she was out of high school. She then took an
apprenticeship under Barry Dawson, an accomplished knifemaker of 30 years.
She has been written up in several magazines and won
awards for her work at knife shows all over the southwest. She was
contracted in 1999 to make the official club knives for the Arizona Knife
Collectors Assc, and continues to support many knife clubs all over the west
coast. She learned engraving under the tutelage of Rachel Wells in Prescott,
AZ and is now hoping to set up a forge in the future and make her own
Damascus.
Dennis Cook has never found himself without a knife of
some sort, a trait instilled in him since childhood. Growing up in the
beautiful state of Vermont, it was second nature to be an avid outdoorsman.
Through his adulthood Dennis always had a fondness for all things edged. He
began making knives as a hobby, a part time endeavor to experiment with
different ideas that had been floating about his head for years. His “hobby”
eventually began taking more and more of his time, and still he was finding
it hard to keep up with the demand he had found for his practical rugged
blades.
Dennis now makes knives full-time, and has expanded his
repertoire to include anything from large western bowies to small bird and
trout knives. He is a member of many west coast knife clubs and continues to
support new makers." -Lynn & Cook Knives, AZ.
