Custom Knives & Decor Forged in Idaho

L.J. Tidwell Forge is located in the beautiful Rockland Valley of South East Idaho. I have a history of hard and creative work. I started as a steel designer building mines, skyscrapers, schools, and churches. However, the outdoors called, and more recently I have found my calling in Agriculture, where a good hobby is needed to keep sane in the winter months. Thus, the forge was born!

Knives is the first choice of products, but I am enjoying metal work of all designs. The building of an inventory of knives and decorative steel is in progress. Please browse the store for my most recent designs, but feel free to contact me for custom orders.
