Arpad is not a man of this century. Why? Well, being a full time maker and producing only 8 to 12 knives a year is part of it but the really unusual throw back is that Arpad uses only hammer and chisel for his knife making. No power tools!. Arpad sculpts steel and organic materials into various classical expressions of mythology, history and scenes of nature as was done centuries ago. His works reflect none of the slickness seen in so many sculpted knives and in that he has no peer, these are true investment quality works of art.

If one were to be visiting any major museum in the world and viewing the arms and armor section and thusly happening upon one of his works in the museum case, not an eye brow would be lifted due to the authenticity his works portray. He will use 10 or more various metals and organic materials in each knife in ways that amplify and highlight the specific theme he is portraying. Owning a Bojtos knife is quite fascinating in the way that each time one views the knife, one sees new particulars not seen at the previous viewing. Arpad is a member of the U. S. Knifemakers Guild and comes to the US to a show once each year.
