🔪 Try before you buy!
One of the perks of having our knives in a retail showroom is that you can demo them before purchasing. Feel the weight, test the balance, and experience the cut firsthand.

🔥 Bad Llama Forge is run by Steve Cornelsen out of Caledon, Ontario, Canada.

Steve collaborates with throwers from both the WATL and IATF, crafting bespoke axes that meet current league regulations. As a certified WATL judge, he ensures each axe is built to precise league specifications—perfect for competition throws or rugged outdoor adventures, whether you’re aiming for the bullseye or building camp in the wild.

🔪 Beyond axes, Bad Llama Forge also specializes in finely crafted knives—including kitchen knives. With a sharp focus on geometry, balance, and cutting efficiency, Steve collaborates with chefs and culinary experts to create precision tools designed for both professional and home kitchens. From razor-sharp slicing knives to versatile all-purpose blades, each piece is forged with performance, comfort, and durability in mind.

Armour

Armour orders – Closed

This is part of our history that brought us in to Blacksmithing, but sadly we will not be focusing on armour production regularly anymor, if we do, it will be as a labour of love.

If you feel you have a project that you would like us to handle please send us an email.

Pipes

Hand forged bowls. combined with a hand carved spout mixing hardwood with some exotic hardwood accents.

Axes

While most of our axes are made with the intent to go to a WATL or IATF match. We are confident that our axes can be relied on whilst in the bush just as much as they can when you’re going for that clutch shot tie breaker.
