T.C. McLane Custom Knives
We believe these knives to have been handmade by Thomas C. McLane sometime in the early 1980s. Though very little information can be found about McLane himself, we believe that he was a bladesmith and blacksmithing instructor working out of Tucson AZ. They were originally purchased as a pair from the maker at the Solvang Knife Show in the mid to late 1980s.
We don't typically work with knives that aren't inherently culinary or utilitarian, but these knives were too impressive to turn away and continue to surprise us with the quality and fine details of McLane's work. Pamphlet shows is included in the sale of the pair only and is not available with the purchase of a single knife.
Please direct any questions about this knife to info@bernalcutlery.com, especially if you have additional information about the maker.
