Keith Murr Custom Knives
Northwestern Arkansas has been known as the center of custom knife makers now for over half a century. To those living in this area the name Keith Murr is synonymous with high quality custom knives of the finest order, much like the late Jimmy Lyle. For years Keith has made knives for friends and relatives, and taken dozens of orders from customers all over the U.S. who have been fortunate enough to have seen his work and just had to have one. Once you see the attached pictures, it will be easy to understand our excitement, but first let's talk a little about Keith. Keith Murr began his knife making back in 1987. He started out using saw blades, but learned very quickly that they would not hold an edge to suit his taste. He started investigating other types of steel, and began to learn about tempering from some of the big name custom knife makers of twenty years ago. As he completed each knife, he personally tested them for strength and the ability to hold an edge. That's something that he continues to do until this day. He uses his knives hard and builds them to stand up to the most rigorous use.
After trying many types of steel, Keith has settled on D 2. He tempers it to a Rockwell hardness of 58-60 in order for it to sharpen and hold the edge he expects. Keith approaches his knife making in a unique manner. “I was raised to believe that everything I make reflects on me as a person, so I do my very best on every knife I make”.
