Welcome to Sloth•Out Custom Knives
At Sloth•Out Custom Knives, we specialize in creating unique handcrafted artisan knives that are perfect for outdoorsmen, adventurers, tradesmen or the collector. Each knife is carefully crafted with precision and attention to detail to ensure the highest quality and performance. All steel is U.S. made as well as G10 and Micarta. Exotic woods are... well... exotic. Leather and kydex are USA as well. We don't use knife blanks or premade scales. Everything is fired, shaped, grinded and heat treated ( normalized, hardened and tempered) by hand. All multi-piece scales are made in house piece by piece using a 24 hour epoxy resin.
Meet our Bladesmith;
My Name is Nick Cvetanovich and I'm a 20+ year veteran in nuisance wildlife management and stinging insect removal and relocation here in Florida ( Florida registered bee keeper). I'm also an abstract artist and musician. I've been forging and making knives on a small scale for quite some time and have recently started making knives full-time (ohhhh yeahhhhh) I believe my knives are a true representation of the demands of my no nonsense previous career mixed with my artistic and creative abilities. I spend a lot of my time at a remote off-grid cabin in north central Florida ( the swamp) which is where I do all forging ( with the mosquitoes , snakes and gators). I love what I do and I hope you will too!
