For our fourth holiday gift suggestion, we’re throwing out the idea of buying a loved one a knife from LaFon Handmade. Local knife maker Adam LaFon makes a wide variety of knives that are perfect for your favorite chef or knife lover in the family.
Whether it’s a knife that will make its home in a kitchen, or one that will reside on a workbench, LaFon has creations that are handsome, durable and utilitarian. These are knives that will be passed along for generations. They are as much works of art as they are practical tools in the daily live’s of their owners. Best of all, they are not only made in America, they are made right here in Buffalo (learn more).
You can visit LaFon Handmade at The Guild @ 980, above the ReUse Action store (learn more).
LaFon knives are currently available on a made-to-order basis. To start the process, e-mail lafonhandmade@gmail.com or use the form on the Contact page. Your order will be a collaboration. When your request has been received, design options will be considered, as well as available materials and pricing. Orders typically take three weeks to a month to complete.
