Nafzger Forge

[pjheff]

I am curious about the knives being produced by Ben Noffsinger. Epicurious has them listed among “America’s Best Artisanal Knives.” They have also been lauded by Food & Wine and Vogue. While these sources are undoubtedly limited in their expertise, I am surprised by the dearth of mention about Nafzger Forge in the fora. Does anyone have any first-hand experience with one of them?

the epicurious list is from 2015, just sayin'. as soon as I saw "bloodroot" and "$400", i knew something wasn't right.

no experience, took a quick glance at his page. I like his handles.

Well it’s obvious, the heel height of his knives isn’t tall enough for this crowd…
