I
realize that this example is rusty. It's the first prototype I
made with the pattern I have. It sits outside my shop for
ornamentation. It's made from 12g steel |

Notice!
My current schedule
is somewhat hectic, and I'm not as able to check my email as often.
During the week, I'll be scheduling time on Wednesday and
Friday
evening for emails and sending invoices. Monday, Tuesday, and
Thursday
nights are usually booked, but I will respond if I have time.
If I
don't respond, please double check your spam folder (just in case) and
my calendar to make sure that I'm not out of town. Thanks!

My name is Jamie Boley and
welcome to Polar Bear Forge. This is my personal website where I
display my knives, as well as some of the other projects that I work
on. You'll also find information about me and my philosophy about
bladesmithing.
First, I do everything that I can in the construction of my blades. I
normally forge them to initial shape rather than use stock removal.
Stainless and certain damascus patterns are the only exceptions. I do
all of the shaping, sanding, heat treating, finishing, and sheathwork
myself.
Currently, my designs range from simple utility knives to bowie knives
to scramasax influenced knives. The pictures in the gallery show a
cross section of the work that I've done. If there's a design that you
would like and you don't see it in the gallery, I can still make it. I
will do custom orders of your design or mine. I have taken a
bit of a break from knives.
In
addition to knives, I have a few other products. Looking for
a
belt sander (grinder) for knifemaking or other metal working hobbies?
Check out my grinder in a box. Looking for lamellar
armour
for SCA or other styles of fighting? I have laser cut
lamellar
plates available as well. Looking for a coat of plates kit
for
for SCA kit, newbie armour, or loaner armour? Check out my
coat
of plates kit.
My Guarantee:
I guarantee each knife that I make to be free of defects in workmanship
for as long as I am capable of making knives. That guarantee does not
include natural handles materials that may be affected by changes in
climate. I will make every effort to stabilize those types of materials
to reduce any changes. Knives are meant to be cutting tools, use as a
pry bar, screwdriver, axe, hatchet, etc... will void the guarantee.
There may be a fee if the damage is caused by abuse rather than use.
