Our Team
Daniel Cruz
Daniel Cruz joined us in July of 2017, and quickly became a crucial part of Serenity Knives, he is my right hand and I rely on him for just about everything. He is the Jack of all Trades, making custom knives and knives for stock, manages the refurbishment side of the business and all the Cerakote finishes. He has a very specific style of kitchen knives that he makes, you will notice them in the showroom. Daniel's newest challenge is designing the best pocket sized fixed blade knife as an Everyday Carry, (EDC).
Knives with this stamp have been made exclusively by Daniel.
Russell Montgomery
Russell Montgomery started Serenity Knives in January 2010. After having a passion for collecting and using knives for a majority of his life, he sought out Murray Carter. Over the next 2 years he spent several weeks learning the traditional Japanese way of blade smithing. After honing those skills he took several workshops with the American Blade Smithing Society and learned the Appalachian Mountain way of doing things. He now uses a balanced combination of these two very divergent techniques and way of design to build the best knives he can.
Knives with this stamp have been made exclusively by Russell.
