– YELLOW FIN KNIFE AND LUTHIER SUPPLY –
I am a hobbyist knifemaker/bladesmith located on a volcano on an island out in the Pacific. With a focus on sustainability and forest preservation we source and sell exotic stabilized and raw woods which are locally and sustainably sourced on the Island of Hawai’i. Clear cutting of our indigenous forests has brought our native trees to the brink of extinction. We hope to instill a love of these woods and inspire others to feel passionate about preserving these precious species. Our woods are sourced entirely from reclaimed local sources. Each piece of wood is carefully hand selected for beauty, with sensitivity to the grain figure and character. Knife/jewelry blocks and scales are professionally stabilized by K&G for lasting durability. Our guitar and ukulele sets have been air dried and cured for over 30 years.

– OUR WOODS –
Due to its warm, temperate climate, Hawai’i is home to some of the most beautiful exotic hardwoods in the world. Here you will find woods with amazing grains, flaming and curls, including the world famous Acacia Koa. Here we are fortunate to have protected forests. All of Yellow Fin’s Koa is sustainably sourced from dead standing and vintage lumber sources to ensure that these species will continue to thrive for generations to come.
