An amazing experience I must say.
This wasn’t my first custom knife but definitely the one where I was the most part in the process.
Love the contact you have with karys throughout the process.
Thanks again

The experience was truly unique, offering exceptional communication throughout. The knife boasts high-quality craftsmanship, fully justifying its price point. Rest assured, you will receive a one-of-a-kind knife tailored to your preferences. I would not hesitate to make another purchase from this establishment; it is truly one of the finest additions to my collection. I am thoroughly pleased with the knife and commend the exceptional service and quality provided here.

Excellent blade, Karol is super responsive and even completed the project earlier than I expected!

I’ve now purchased several knives through Karys. I cannot say enough good things about him or the process each time.

1) His communication is top notch in the kitchen cutlery world. I have yet to commission a custom knife from another maker, who had as much and as open of communication with me. Everything from pricing, to suggestions for the design, to preliminary drawings of the knife profile, and every step of the blade forging, finishing and shipping he would answer questions before you ever thought to ask them, and provide photos throughout the process.

2) His workmanship is second to none. Phenomenal execution on grinds, forging and handle work leave you with a knife that is both indisputably an heirloom, but also a conversation piece with how incredible the quality of work is.

As mentioned, I now own two custom knives from him. I’m already planning a third, and would recommend him to anyone and everyone looking to create a knife that will be the centerpiece of their collections for decades to come. He’s earned my business with both the quality of his work, and his communication skills which frankly many custom makers lack. I know he’ll earn your business too, because if his knife designs catch your interest, you will absolutely not be disappointed.

Where do you even start when it comes to a Karyś knife? It's somewhere between an art piece and a knife but at the same time it's both and so much more. The sheer craftsmanship is impeccable, all the way from the fit of the handle, the thin grind, razor sharp edge and perfect balance and proportions. In contrast the design and esthetics are rough, brutal, sometimes it even looks broken but in the best way possible. The rough texture isn't only beautiful, it adds to the performance of the knife. Bolster gets grippy even when wet. Blade has a lot of grip and makes food slip off easy.

I got a gift card for my 30th birthday and Karyś was so nice once I contacted him. Gave me great response, squeezed me in even though he had other projects in line and made wonders with my order. Only down side is that owning one knife isn't enough, I will be back for more. And anyone reading this review wondering whether to buy a knife or not, stop wondering. This is art, craftsmanship, knife making, design and a humble guy doing the best he can with a pice of steel and wood. And trust me, it's the best.

There isn’t much to say other than how pleasant it was to work with Karol for a custom order. Communication is easy and updates along the way are a really nice touch, the knife performs flawlessly and the creativity of the design is endearing. Definitely a heirloom piece that will be enjoyed for a long time

Perfect knife, just lovely and the high end of a knife, blending look, craftsmanship and functionality in the ultimate form.

Absolutely fantastic craftsmanship. I would highly recommend his knives. They look amazing and perform even better. Great communication

Absolutely fantastic knives. Karol is the right person for such unique pieces. Thank you for that work bro!

Fantastic, awesome knives. Karol finds the right balance between art and kitchen tool. His knives are unique and opened s new esthetic dimension to me.

Perfect balance between style and functionality.

Moreover Karys is a really nice and help-full person.

This is my fourth pieces by Karol and first custom
He was super responsive and easy to deal with and helped me come up with something aesthetically unique and functional
The finished knife is beautiful and one of my best performers
This will definitely not be my last piece from him
A great artisan and super cool guy!

I asked to differents knives makers to make me a table knife respecting their own style.
And I really wanted a knife from Karol Karys which is one of my favorite knifemaker.
I wan’t sure he would accept to make a table knife, but he liked the project and undertake the challenge.

Only one request : do what you want and surprise me. And I was surprised. Karol tried many things and finally purpose me a full metal knife.
Karol is very attentive and force of proposals. A pleasure to work with him.

I'm a demanding customer and Karol met all my expectations for my project!
I'm really happy to have a "Karol Karys" :)

Having bought 2 knives from Karol and having a third on order.. I can honestly say he's one of the finest makers and artists around. Easy to deal with and a superb style.
