Edged Tools for BOTH Hands
Welcome to SouthPaw-Knives, my name is Ira Mark Lipson. I make custom pocket knives for lefties and righties. This part-time hobby business began by customizing production right hand knives to make them lefty friendly.
MANY THANKS TO TACTICAL KNIVES MAGAZINE FOR THE GREAT STORY ABOUT SOUTHPAW-KNIVES IN THE JULY 2009 ISSUE
________________________________________________________________________________________
The Saga Continues
After a couple of years I decided to make my own left hand knives from scratch. My goal was to provide left handed folks like me with the joy of owning a custom made knife.
Please note that SouthPaw-Knives is a HOME SHOP, custom knives are made BY HAND, NOT MASS PRODUCED, knives are ONE OF A KIND, Fit and Finish vary from knife to knife. Custom blades are professionally heat treated and cryogenically tempered by Texas Knife Supply. Knives pictured on these pages are prototypes and can be duplicated on request, of course price depends on materials.
PROTOTYPE GALLERY
See a knife you like, I will make it to order.
Most recent prototypes are pictured from top down.

SORRY FOR THE LONG WAIT BUT A SERIES OF PERSONAL ISSUES SLOWED DOWN KNIFE MAKING TO A CRAWL. BELOW IS A LOOK AT LAST YEARS PROTOTYPES. ~ ira
Autos will always be magical, but alas, too many problems to deal with. If you want to look at some of my earlier endeavors follow the link above.
THE EARLY YEARS
MOST KNIFEMAKERS DON'T SHOW THEIR KNIFE MAKING EVOLUTION, BUT GROWTH IS PART OF LIFE, SO WHAT FOLLOWS ARE EXAMPLES OF THE EVOLUTION MY HOBBY HAS GONE THROUGH. ~ ira
