PARK FAMILY KNIVES

I’m still early in my journey as a knifemaker, focused on building the best knives I can. For now, I'm focusing on function over form; but in time, I hope to create pieces that stand out not just for performance, but for their individuality and design.

Each knife I make is connected to my family in different ways. I think of the relatives I grew up with in Korea - the aunts, uncles, and grandparents - and the values they passed on to me as a child. I think of my immigrant family here, whose hard work made it possible for me to even explore this craft. I think of the new family I'm a part of now, whose support and excitement for a new craft inspires me to pursue something I genuinely find fascinating.

These are the reasons I dedicate every knife I make to the Park family.
