Hand-Crafted Knives

Besides being an author and gemologist, Benjamin Mester is also a woodworker.  In fact, the name Mester is derived from a Hungarian word that means master craftsman.  Specializing in high end kitchen knives, he sources the highest quality Manzanita burl hardwood locally in Southern California, pairing it with the finest Japanese steel to bring you custom knives that are truly unique.  You aren’t going to find knives like these anywhere else in the world.  Each one is a hand crafted work of art. All knives are made in the USA.
