Rossdeutscher, Bob - Arlington Heights, IL
Mr. Rossdeutscher's knives are based on frontier style historical designs. He has been making knives since the early 1990s. He got his first look at blacksmithing while working at a local horse stable while in high school where he started learning his “hammer skills”. "I like the look of something that is handmade and well-used." Museums have bought his pieces for use in living history displays. "Everything I make is made to be used," he said.
