In his own words: "I became interested in handmade knives in the early 70's and joined the Knifemakers Guild in 1976. Over the years I have made just about every type of knife from daggers to folders. My design philosophy is to produce clean, restrained, flowing designs accentuated by engraving and gold work. I am the sole author of all of my work including engraving and gold inlay. In addition to my accomplishments with designing production knives, I have won the Beretta Award for Excellence in Craftsmanship, the W.W. Cronk Award for Best Knife at the Knifemaker's Guild Show (twice), and served two terms as president of the Knifemaker's Guild." Fred Carter
