Jerome started making knives in 2000. He has hunted and fished all of his life and for a period of time was a professional hunting guide. When speaking of his career change, he says "The reason that I make knives is because I enjoy the challenge of taking raw materials and making a useful tool." Having used such tools for most of his life, Jerome is certainly qualified to know what makes a hunting knife great.

Jerome received his journeyman stamp in May 2002. Two years later, in 2004, he made history when he was awarded his Master Smith ranking - he and his father David then became the first ever father and son members of the American Bladesmith Society.

Jerome is an excellent knifemaker in his own right and is the primary contributor to Quillion of Quality, an instructional DVD for those aspiring to pass the ABS Quillion test.

Jerome is also a member of the American Knifemakers Association and the Gulf Coast Custom Knifemakers. Many years of quality work have added his name to the long list of great Arkansas knife makers.
