Customer Reviews
I asked Liam to make a custom flat head axe for my girlfriend who is a firefighter. I sent Liam a mock up of what I wanted and asked him to have his artistic input and he did not disappoint. The axe will be used as a way of me proposing to her so of course I wanted top notch stuff, this is why I came to Black Guard Customs.
Liam was honest on lead times, prices, and expectations the whole way. Communication was also great as he responded to all my emails in a timely manner. Appreciate the work Liam did for me.
I love the work from Blackguard. We have had many many knives. Never had any issues and always the best customer service!
I will never shop anywhere else!
If you are thinking about taking classes then just sign up. Liam has years of teaching and showing that will absolutely help you. If you started smithing but haven’t gotten into blades, take the classes.
I placed a custom order with BlackGuard Customs. I sent them a picture of the knife I wanted and the dimensions. They gave me a lead time and they were exactly on time. However upon final inspection they noticed a small fracture in the steel (I probably would have never noticed), and the owner, Liam, called me personally to let me know what had happened. He apologized, upgraded the steel, and expedited my order. I also shot the breeze with Liam and learned a little about him and the company. Great down to earth guy and he runs a great company. Blackguard Custom products are worth EVERY penny.
Liam always goes above & beyond for his customers! Highly skilled craftsman he is.
