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.
Blackgaurd Customs always does a phenomenal job. No matter Axe or knife. Every product that I've ever purchased has been absolutely perfect! The engraving is absolutely amazing!;))
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.

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.
My honor to support our Veterans who have supported us in ways we can never repay.
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.
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.
I’ve ordered from this company 3 times and have always LOVED their products! They are so friendly and accommodating and make fine quality products. I will always order from them.
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!
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.
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!
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!
Does a great job
The soaps and beard care products these guys make are hands down the best.
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.
Quality stickers that are a great addition to your cooler, water bottle, or truck.
