ABOUT US
Heirloom Quality Knives, Trusted By Western New York
At Northman Knife Company, steel, fire, and tradition drive everything we make. Our studio exists to bring the ancient art of the forge into the hands of the modern craftsman. Founder and bladesmith Josh DiBlasi began in a small home workshop; today, his artisan studio produces blades that balance refined geometry with dependable strength. Each knife is forged with integrity in materials and precision in process—tools built to serve, endure, and be passed down.
Josh is also among the few professionals in the region who combine traditional forging with expert sharpening services, ensuring superior results and safety for every blade.
Why Choose Our Lawtons, NY, Workshop
We are not a factory. We are an artisan studio. That difference is visible in the grain of the steel, the balance in the hand, and the edge that holds through honest work. Choosing Northman means investing in Hand-Forged Craftsmanship and heirloom-quality durability. You can feel it the first time the knife bites cleanly through fiber, hide, or wood. Every piece is forged, heat-treated, ground, fitted, and finished by Josh to meet the highest standards of craftsmanship and performance, ensuring quality from billet to sheath.
