Kitchen/Culinary
Clare
The Clare is the latest paring knife design. Slightly smaller than the Derry, and with a narrower blade that allows quick easy cutting.

Antrim
The Antrim was created as simple knife with a long slender blade. The knife is excellent in the kitchen and fills a void between a paring knife and utility knife. I also have customers that like the long blade for hunting. OAL 9.25"

Armagh
The Armagh is a lightweight sheepsfoot style paring knife. Either flat ground or with a 20' hollow grind, it makes a great little knife for light work in the kitchen. I can also make this model with a little thicker steel for use as an EDC or first knife for a youngster. OAL:7.25"

Glasraich
The Glasraich is single purpose knife; it excels at chopping vegetables. The single sided bevel allows for straight cuts and the hollow grind helps with food release. This knife is available in both right and left-handed versions.
*UPDATE*
Look for a double ground Glasraich in the near future. Same great style with better function.

Cocaire
The Cocaire is a general purpose chef knife. With a profile similar to a santoku, the low tip allows for a long straight edge with very little belly. It works great for chopping, dicing and slicing.

Derry
The Derry is one of my early models and was my main paring knife model prior to the Armagh. It still makes a great paring knife or an EDC in thicker steel. OAL:7.25"

Dublin
The Dublin was inspired by an old butcher knife that came into the shop for sharpening. I loved the simple elegance of that knife. WIth that knife in mind I created the Dublin. It glides through tenderloins and is great at cleaning up chicken or pork. OAL:10.75

Sub-Dublins (85,75)
The Dublin 85 and Dublin 75 are downsized versions of the Dublin. The 75 (75% of the original size) makes a nice steak knife, or even an old fashioned hunting knife. The 85 does everything the full size does, but is a little more nimble. OAL: 8.75" & 8"

Meath
The Meath is a knife that is outside my comfort zone as far as size. At 14.75" it's a beast! It is designed for brisket slicing and BBQ cutting.

Sligo
The Sligo was formerly known as the slicer. It's a more modern style slicing knife. It's great at carving a turkey or slicing slabs off a ham. OAL: 11.5"

Wicklow
If you are only going to have one knife in the kitchen, it should be the WIcklow. This knife will do almost every task you throw at it. From slicing an onion to cleaning the silver skin off of tenderloin, the Wicklow can do it.

Donegal
The Donegal is one of my most popular knives. I compare it to a cross between a Nesmuck and a Canadian Belt Knife, both of which are great knives! The Donegal is great for hunting skinning or EDC. OAL:8.25"

Limerick
This is one of my personal favorites. The diminutive Limericks are great worn around your neck or in your front pocket or purse. Just the right size blade for opening boxes or other everyday tasks. It also makes a great first knife for a youngster.

Longford (120,100,85,75,70)
The Longford line of knives are very versatile. The 120 and 100 are great boning or fillet knives. The smaller versions are ideal for the traditional Bird & Trout style work. Whether you are cleaning a racoon with the Longford 85 or skinning a shrew with the Longford 70, these are the tools for the job. OAL's: 10.75", 9", 6.75", 6.25" & 5.75"

Galway
This is about as close as I come to making a bushcraft knife. This knife in CPM 3V will make a great outdoor knife. OAL:

Sealgaire
The Sealgaire holds a special place in my memory because it was the first time I used a pattern for a knife. Up until this point, every knife was a One-off custom. It marked a point in my knifemaking career where I felt comfortable trying to duplicate a certain knife. It's still a popular knife to this day. OAL: 7"

Wexford (120,100,75,70)
I originally was trying to make a Sharpfinger when I drew up the plans for the Wexford. I didn't succeed in making a Sharpfinger, but did create a great little skinning knife. OALs: 8.75",7.25", 6" & 5.5"

Retired/Discontinued
Down (Retired)
The Down was created by accident. It was never a popular model, but the few people that do own one really like it. This model is retired and will only be made as a special book order.

Kerry(Bolo, XL) (Retired)
The Kerry's were designed as large camp knives. I really prefer making smaller knives and these just didn't seem to fit my line up. I will still make these models as special book orders.

Trodaire (Retired)
The Trodaire was my attempt at a large fighting style knife. It's large!. You better have big mitts if you are going to hold it comfortably. This is only available as a special book order.

Sealgaire II (Discontinued)
I really don't like this model, so I will no longer make it. It's the same shape as the Sealgaire, with a taller blade. I think it looks a bit goofy.
