OTHER INFO |
Mel Nishiuchi Mel is a long time knifemaker and one of the best kept secrets of the industry. Mel started making knives back in the 80's but has always been part time. He is originally from Hawaii and part of the early Hawaiian knife makers group. He currently lives in Las Vegas where he works on museum displays but is planning to start working more seriously at knife making. Mel is a stone expert and does consulting for many of the top knifemakers such as Buster Warenski, Ken Onion and may others. He also helps Blade Magazine and numerous writers when they need back ground on different stone such as the butter milk jade from Africa below. Mel only does our show "Plaza Cutlery Custom Knife Show" but may start to show up at other shows as time allows. His mark is his Hawaiian symbol which is a credit to his heritage and he has stayed with it all these years as it does make him stand out! He is also one of the nicest guys you will ever meet!
