Custom BladeSmith/Knifemaker Profile: Joanne Wright - Bladesmith
'A full-time bladesmith since 2023, my journey into bladesmithing first started with Kevin and Heather Harvey in 2016 where I did my first bladesmithing course. Later in 2018, I was introduced to Stuart Smith who over the years has become my mentor.

I take great pride in hand forging all my knives and my martial arts experience has greatly influenced my knife designs.

I enjoy using African Hardwoods as well as the stabilized burls in exotic colours. I also love matching my knife handle material to its counterpart leather sheath.'

Talented craftsmanship from Joanne, next generation Bladesmith from South Africa, endorsed at the 2024 Brooklyn Knife Show - Awarded Novice Best Fighting Knife & Novice Best Forged Knife.
