Blackguard Customs

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!

Great knowledge

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.

Great Product, Even Better Service

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.

Outfitters Camp Box Set

This set is freaking AWESOME!! I got the orange set. I always know where I lay my knives down. I do have time where I knock them off the table or walk off set them down somewhere else. LOL Thank You.

I'm more than happy to chip in to this great business!;)

Honor to sponsor class for our Veterans and First Responders

My honor to support our Veterans who have supported us in ways we can never repay.

Multiple knives made

Liam and his forge have helped me learn the art of bladesmithing and create four knives I'm very proud of. I'm a return customer and I've always been very pleased with the end product! Try any of his classes and you will not be disappointed.

Chip in

Happy to chip in to this vet business.

Best customer service

I am sad to say that I didn't end up purchasing the item I had mocked up. However, what I can comment on is the fact that the customer service of the company was absolutely amazing! In the end, I couldn't convince the others in my unit to spare the expense, but the item itself was fantastic, and worth the cost.

Heritage EDC

This has been my EDC blade for years now. Liam absolutely hands down is producing some of the best knives I've ever owned and you can ask him, I'm not easy on my blades! This isn't the only Blackguard Customs knife I own and it most definitely won't be the last!

Colonial axe

This is my 4th viking hand axe I purchased. It's a piece of art. The engraving is phenomenal. Attention to detail is top notch. Customer service is the best, Kristi and Liam answered all of my questions quickly. My first axe was the Invader many years ago, Everything I have purchased from BlackGaurd is built to stand the test of time! As a Navy vet myself, I'll be a customer for life, and to anyone reading this, try to support this great Vet owned company in anyway possible. God Bless you all!

Engraving is phenomenal, it's a piece of art that will stand the test of time. The BlackGaurd crew is highly talented from top to bottom. This is the 4th axe I've gotten and they keep building perfection. The customs they create are out of this world.

Awesome build quality as usual, Gorgeous engraving!

I purchased a Air Force for my dad and a Marines one for my uncle. They both were blown away by the build quality. Well worth the money. God Bless you All!

THE DEGREASER
CJ
The Best!

Everything that these guys produce is top notch, I’ve been using their products for beard care since I found them 7 years ago. And use the soaps exclusively since they started making them. The Degreaser is perfect for cleaning up after a hard day of work or long day in the woods. Buy 1 of everything and find your favorite, you won’t be disappointed!

Beard Oil/Degreaser soap (lemongrass)

I buy BlackGuard's beard oil for my husband (he won't use anything else) and have given it as gifts. It's consistently a high quality product. Blackjack is his favorite oil along with the Degreaser soap which smells so rich, clean, and amazing.

Eard Balm & Oil

I recently purchased the Formula 1176 beard balm and oil to add to the other beard care I have purchase from Black Guard Customs. I like that the smell is strong enough to enjoy, but not overpowering. Definitely recommend getting some b
