I love two things in my life, one is outdoor life and the other is martial arts. I have been collecting knives and practicing martial arts like Aikedo , Muay Thai and AMOK! knife fighting. since I was 15 years old. This experience has given me the knowledge to make my fighting and hunting knife designs.
I started making knife as an amateur . My brand name "Yuna", which is the combination of my nickname "Yun" and my wife's name "Na"; who supports and encourages me to be a professional knifemaker, and also loves the art form.
When I design my custom knives, the function always comes first. The aesthetic consideration and decoration elements normally come by themselves as part of the creative flow.
In 2004 I attended to the knife show in U.S.A. I get award the best custom folder at NKCA ( National Knife Collector Association ) fall knife show ,Louisville,Kentucky.
Now, the custom knife has become an important part of my daily life. I take the designs I make seriously and am committed to excellence in the completed designs I create. |
