Matthew Christensen, Christensen Knifeworks, joins Bob "The Knife Junkie" DeMarco on episode 334 of The Knife Junkie Podcast. This is his second appearance on the podcast having first been featured on episode 150 of the show.

Matthew is a custom knife maker from Illinois. He started as an enthusiast in 2007, but got into making knives in 2012 after customizing production knives for other collectors.

After a short stint with fixed blades and friction folders, Christensen now focuses on frame lock and liner lock folders. He has collaborated with other makers, and it was his Sinbad collaboration with Alphahunter Tactical that put Matthew on the map.

Matthew worked under Dave Curtiss for a year, gaining valuable knowledge and experience from the knife making stalwart.

Christensen Knifeworks features several custom models and a number of limited run models like the Maverick S, made by Reate, and also has two designs in multi-variant production with We and Civivi with the Thug, and Kizer with the Critical.
