Another amazing build by dad! We are so proud of him, dad recently past his journeyman Smith performance test, now he will be testing at BLADESHOW this June to find out if he is worthy of the JS stamp (he totally is imo.) -Josh

Totally blown away at the attention to detail, skill and artistry involved in the making of the blade. Being such a beautiful and intricate creation, I was left wishing we had a bit more than the 60 seconds given to admire the finished piece, especially after the journey of the build. The final result was truly stunning!

This has got to be literally the most beautiful knife I have ever seen. I swear it's the handle and guard that really makes it stand a head above the rest. I can't wait to see what he does next.

[@j_edwards6075]

Congratulations Royer Dad! That turned out beautifully. Have very much enjoyed seeing your progress from beginner to master craftsman over the last few years. I recently finished making my most detailed bowie knife to date and this completely blows it out of the water. The level of intricacy is fantastic mate.

My jaw dropped when he said "My entire 3-year career". Your craftsmanship is literally one of the highest level, absolute perfection, and the attention to detail is unmatched. Your knives are a work of art and a marvel. To learn that you've got to making some of the most beautiful knives I have ever seen in just 3 years shows the scale of your talent.

[@dankaczor8965]

Really nice handle and guard setup. Haven’t seen many people lately making finger loops for their knives. Great mosaic damascus as well, really bold and pronounced.

[@evaderknives]

You guys & your patience... I just don't understand, hahaha. Hope you all are well, have a great weekend!!!

[@knifethrower9733]

If I could charge as much as these guys charge, I'd be able to take a week or two perfecting every single little detail too. Their knives are worth every penny ✌️

[@evaderknives]

​@@knifethrower9733 I think you got your thinking backwards... A week or 2?? You have to work for perfection, then everything else falls into place. Money should be the last care. Strive for perfection with everything you do!!! Failure is part of that perfection, learn & find way to improve

[@joshuagayouauthor8401]

I cannot believe you've been at this for only 3 years. That looked like a lifetime's worth of skill in that piece.

[@FoXeaRS80]

Machinist and knifemaker here. You mill and do any rough shaping BEFORE you harden. Soft steel is much easier to shape with a mill or lathe than hardened steel. Props on the welding of all the seams to keep air out. Very good principle when forge welding. Keep up the good work!

[@KyleRoyerKnives]

Hey thanks FoX. Keep Forging On my friend Dad

[@rockhoundingwithjasperblue]

Well, that was Awesome!! Thank you so much for letting us in to watch one of the greatest knife builds I’ve personally ever seen. The thought alone that went into this design is just stunning. The precision with the way you executed this was such that I could barely tell if that was you or Kyle! Thank you again. You truly inspire us all!!💎

Hey thank you my friend. Glad you are here hanging out with us all. Dad

[@tonyohrnberg7738]

Looking forward to some beautiful blade smithing

[@DanielRichardKiy]

You should do a collaboration with Jay Fisher. Your fit and finish combined with his cryogenic processes would be something to behold.

[@Athazago]

The mythical ability of a blacksmith isn't just the ability to create a piece of art. It is the ability to recreate this piece of art down to a tee. And yet... it stays mythical for it always being a one of a kind knife of which none other exists quite like this. Even if built the same way, the pattern is always a new sight to behold. Love it so much, you have no idea how much I'd love owning one of those just to have it on display.

[@rvsbladesnthangs]

I can't even begin to express how much I love this... And Kyle holding the umbrella for Dad made me think of Proberbs22:6 Proverbs 22:6: "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it." Y'all are Awesome!!!

[@chadpatterson9163]

For medical instruments made from Carpenter Custom 630, 17-4 Ph 900 we would flood our heat treat furnace with nitrogen. Tank of gas with a regulator and a piece of copper or SS tube into the chimney. The formal way to do this was a vacuum HT oven, but these things are expensive. We would get the parts out with no scale (brownish/blackish) and if there were sharpened edges, they remained sharp. Love your work, it is fantastic!
