Moose River Handcrafts

Howdy! Welcome to the Moose River Handcrafts catalog of handmade brown ash baskets, birch bark baskets, crooked knives, and hand-forged knives.

Who We Are
I live with my girlfriend Sally Kwan in the northwest mountains of Maine, surrounded by the peace and quiet of the woods. We enjoy a simpler, slower rustic lifestyle, far away from power and telephone lines. We are always striving to work less and live more, because life is too short to waste.

Small Business
I have been an avid woodsman from a very young age. I learned the art of brown ash basketry and the creation of useful hunting and fishing knives as my own need for them grew. It then expanded into a small home business as a way to support the family. Sally and I take pride in making beautiful and functional items that will be of value to you for a long time. We do not support the throw away mentality of modern Americans. You too can make a difference by buying quality multi-use products. Support your local small businesses and farmers.

Quality
We make our crafts as the orders come in - which can take extra time - but we feel it allows us to put the care and quality we value into each product. Each order can be customized to your needs. We hope you will enjoy them!

Retail Stores
Look for some of our pack baskets at the following stores:
* Jackman Hardware, 598 Main St., Jackman, Maine, 04945, 207-668-5151
* The North Country Whittler, Route 16, Albany, New Hampshire, 603-447-4921, www.carvingsnh.com

How to Order
We currently sell only to customers with mailing addresses in the 48 contiguous United States. High shipping costs due to the large size of our baskets have made it too expensive to send orders to customers outside of the US. To place an order, please mail us a completed Order Form with a check for the full amount. We custom make your baskets/knives after we receive your prepaid order. Sorry, but we are only two people and these products take time to make.

Contact Us
Call us on the telephone if you have questions about our products or about your existing order.
