I appreciate fine craftsmanship & the unusual. I recently came into 2 collectible firearms that…read moreneeded unique hand grips to round them out. I came across SFSW, their work was just what I was looking for. Bonus they're about an hour away. The GPS brought us to a 110 year old adobe ranch style house, the last one in that part of Santa Fe. After winding around the interior we found the display area. Not only did I find handgrips but a myriad of knives, cutlery & forks and more in a small sales area. The craftsmen were plying their trade on the other side of an open wall. For those who want instant gratification they have a lot to choose from. I had a specific goal in mind. As difficult as it was I stayed away from the other temptations. I found a beautiful set of wooly mammoth tusk grips(10-15000yrs old). I had an idea of the 2nd pair - blue mammoth tooth, turquoise, meteorite, one made up of mineral deposits, or a combination. Well, until I went into a back room and was shown a mammoth tooth in red/pink. Red/pink it is. It'll be 4-6 weeks until they're ready. You can't rush good craftsmanship. Regardless of what you select, price is commensurate with the level of craftsmanship. Unique, exotic or unusual in knives, cutlery, jewelry or handgrips it's probably here.

They offer a taste of this once a month for a minimum amount AND all the monies they collect that night (yes it's held in the early evening) goes to a local charity. Plenty of instructors are there to help your hands produce pottery beauty. Not to worry if you are unsure of your pottery skills. By the end of the evening, you will leave with a new kind of pride. A very inexpensive way to dabble in pottery. Best news is there are plenty of classes to make you into the pottery master you always wished

She's super knowledgeable and helpful during our classes, and adapts the class to our projects. The space is quite big, and has a very nice atmosphere. You can bring food/drinks while you're in the studio, and you can even get some snacks/drinks while you're there. Dogs also roam the studio while their owners are working. Paseo donates a ton of money to local charities which is so sweet. They're a non-profit and you can "vote" on where you want the money to go. I'll probably take another class here. So fun!
