  • Neil is a knife maker from Hawaii who has used his creativity and skill to make a name for himself. Picking up this trade later in life, he was considered an underdog when competing on the show “Forged in Fire”, but then shocked everyone by winning the competition. While he is an electrician by trade, his great-grandfather was a blacksmith in Hilo. Neil expresses his art in the products he makes.

    Man, Neil, that was a strong 55 minutes speech. As everyone I am going through a phase, before 10 hours I destroyed my car from not caring by the speed, if I die or not, but I am still here! I watched all the video with tears in my eyes and at the end you killed me! I admire on you the balls it takes to speak about your deepest fears in front of so many people, and you sir have some balls of steel! Keep it up, be strong, be alive, be happy, do what you know to do! With love from a follower from Greece.

      As it's 9 months later from this comment, I hope you are doing better now. Keep pushing through man. On a side note, his balls are made of 720 layers of damascus steel.

    I had the opportunity to hang out and forge a knife with Neil earlier this year... probably one of the nicest and most down to earth dudes you will ever meet. He keeps it real he has the fiercest worth ethic I’ve ever seen. He claims that he’s not a good knife maker or he isn’t talented but he is definitely one of the greats. Being on Forged in Fire myself makes me feel small in the shadow of him. His story and power to deal with adversity fuels me to be better. Thanks Neil for sharing 🤙🏾

    I just learned about this from Jason Knight's video/podcast with Bert Sorin. I'm glad that Bert gave Neil a hug at the end. I wanted to do the very same. That was one of the bravest things I've ever witnessed.

    Man, I stumbled across your Instagram just looking for 'ancient tanto'. What I stumbled onto was one hell of a person who does great things, and to me, is inspirational in making my knives one at a time until I save up for each new tool. I love making them. I cannot walk past my stuff without picking something up and doing something until I remember, Dude, LAUNDRY, or you came down here to get something for HER. When you make a Japanese style blade, I am right there looking at every small detail and taking it in!
