Quality woodworking has a way of seeming almost fantastical, like an object of art piece straight out of a fantasy movie. But despite the art form’s age, there are still creative people out there, chiseling, sawing, and sanding wood for our benefit.

We also got in touch with craftsman George Dirk Britz from Britz Knives, to learn a bit more about creative work.
