*** We are still taking donation but no longer taking knife donations! We are so humbled and thankful to have met our goal. Drawing coming soon! Thank you everyone!
When Shane and I were married, I never dreamed I was marrying a knife maker. I'm sure, Shane never dreamed we'd adopt from China.
Here we are almost sixteen years later and both of these unknowns are coming together in a big way!
Shane always makes exceptional knives and this one is no different.
It. Is. Georgeous!
Don't you agree? And extra special because as cheesy as it sounds, it was made with love for a tiny baby girl a world away!
One of our most recent pictures. Taken in March around her 2nd birthday. She's in 6-9 month clothing.
Below are the specs from the big man himself.
Knife blade is approx. 3.5"

Blade has been heat treated to a 60 to 61 rockwell C hardness

I pride myself in making each knife to the best of my ability, and make each knife better than the last. I try to use the very best materials possible, and like using exotic materials. I try to make knives that are extremely tough and will last many life times, but also have that hierloom quality."-Shane
Here's how the fundraiser works.
Each spot is $15 or 5 spots for $65.
***When you donate (on the you caring site linked below) it's really important that you leave your name and the word knife. This way I can track the raffle money coming in.
Keep checking back to the blog and even check the bottom of this post for updates. Also, sign up for you caring updates.
Thank you for helping clear the hurdles that keep us from our baby girl. <3>
