Prosthetics, Knives, & BBQ

Project 003

We will be taking a prosthetic and transforming it into a brisket knife for disabled veteran and pit master, Donavan Hollis.

Through our bladesmith partner, JDCK, we will also be producing a line of knives with parts of one of Donavan’s old prosthetics implemented into the knife itself.

This run of knives will be for sale to the general public in the near future!
