Hand-forged carbon steel tools. Born in a small Ukrainianworkshop. Loved by woodcarvers, leatherworkers, bushcrafters andgift-givers in 60+ countries.For generations, the smiths in our corner of Ukraine have beenforging carbon steel by hand — one blade at a time, hammered,quenched, ground, and honed by people who actually use the toolsthey make. Sharky Forged Steel Tools carries that tradition forward.Every blade we ship is forged from hardened carbon steel52100 (ASTM A295), the same alloy used inhigh-performance bearings, chosen because it takes a screaming-sharpedge and holds it through real work. Whether you’re carving aspoon by the fireplace, sculpting a relief panel, cutting leatherfor a wallet, or splitting kindling at base camp, a Sharky tool isbuilt to feel right the first time you pick it up — and stillfeel right twenty years later.

It grows out of whatworking craftspeople actually ask for: wood carving knives,spoon carving hooks and gouges, leather working tools, bushcraftand outdoor knives, hand axes and forging hammers, and completeDIY carving kits for beginners who want to carve theirfirst figurine, or make something real with their own hands. Each piece is made by hand, fitted by hand, andhand-honed before it leaves the workshop — so the tool thatarrives on your bench is ready to cut on day one.Sharky special promise10% OFF YOUR FIRST ORDER.Use code 10HELLO at checkout to receive 10% off your first order at forgedsteeltools.com1FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING on every wood carvingtool, to every country we serve.

The Medium Stock Knife - Cloggers knife is high quality and sharp. It works great. It's sheath was a bit too small. The Whittling Knife for Wood Carving with Leather Sheath is great. Both great additions to my wood carving tool kit.

This leather chisel/tool wrap was high quality and well worth the price. The shipping was a little longer than I would have normally liked (took almost 3 weeks), but wasn't in a hurry to get it. Overall great product.

Rick, thank you. I am glad the delivery arrived so quickly and that you are pleased with the quality. We shape each leather round knife from 52100 carbon steel in our workshop so it keeps clean sharpness through dense leather. Put the blade to honest work on your cutting table, and we would love to see the leather projects you craft with it! Yaroslav & the team

Ordering off of Sharky Forged Steel was easy and straightforward. I ordered the spoon carving set for beginners. Everything came as described, high quality and very clean designs. The handles on each of the tools have a very comfortably smooth grip that made learning that much more enjoyable. Shipping was as prompt as it could be considering this shipped from Ukraine to the U.S. I would definitely order from this company again! Wonderful

Haley, thank you. It is great to hear that the spoon carving set for beginners reached you safely and that the handles feel comfortable in your grip as you learn. We forge every blade from 52100 carbon steel in our workshop so each tool balances well and stays dependable over time. I hope the set brings you many quiet hours of carving, and we would love to see the spoons you make with them! Yaroslav & the team

I'm excited to see a new company making hook and spoon knives, and I bought several for the spoon-carving classes I teach. For the price, these are very good quality knives, which makes them a great option for outfitting students. They arrived reasonably sharp, though not quite as keen out of the box as some established makers' knives. My main issue is that the bevel rails on my knives weren't aligned. That makes it hard to sharpen with a stone that rides both rails and brings the edge to a clean apex. I've been regrinding each one so they'll be easy to maintain from here on. It's taken some time, but now that's done, I expect them to be solid tools for my classes. These feel like the kind of fit-and-finish issues a young company works out as it refines its process, and I'd happily buy from them again as they do. Four stars for a good start, and I'm looking forward to seeing how they improve.
