My name is Zoltán Csernus. Growing up with Tumpek Ferenc, I knew of his love of knives.
I came to the U.S.A. with my wife in 1988, and I we began our new lives in Southern California. During a visit to my hometown, I saw the exquisite line of knives Ferenc Tumpek had designed.
I knew that when the collectors of fine knives saw them, they would step right up to the best.
Ferenc Tumpek gave me the rights to exclusively sell them in the United States.
About Ferenc Tumpek, custom knife maker and folk artist.
Mr. Tumpek grew up in Dunaújváros, Hungary. He's been making handmade knives since 1975 and became a full-time custom knife maker in 1990.
He is producing custom knives for collectors as well as one of kind hunter and folding knives.
All knives are handmade and designed for best function and performance on the field.
All hunting knives have a nicely tapered full tang for best balance of the knife and they all come with a red or black spacer - features found only on the best custom hunting knives.
Over the years, his work has been featured in many magazines in Europe and the United States, like Knife Mania magazine and Cutting Edge.
After winning
numerous awards in the fixed blade category, he decided to focus his talent on making exclusive and affordable
custom folding pocket knives, picking the most exclusive handle materials, like mammoth ivory, elephant ivory, warthog tusk, sambar stag and many more.
The blades are made with 440C, ATS34 or beautiful Damascus steel combined with titanium or stainless liners with full file work.
Several friends asked him to use his talent to make sambar stag grips for the Colt 1911, so he came up with special grip with spacer on the back side. So far, we haven't seen anyone make it like that.
He only makes grips for the Colt 1911 and for the real clones. (Kimber, STI, Les Bear, Wilson, Defender Ultra Cary, Springfields, Dan Wesson etc.)
We hope you will find the right knife or grip for you in our webshop!
