Knifemaking

Winkler has been making knives since 1977 and is a certified Mastersmith with the American Bladesmith Society and designed and built the knives and tomahawks for the 1992 motion picture The Last of the Mohicans.^[1]^[2]^[3]

Winkler was primarily known for his Native-American or pioneer-style influenced designs until 2012. In that year Winkler became involved with military and tactical knives and tomahawks.^[4]

Winkler is also credited in the New York Times for having his hatchets used by the Navy Seals, particularly Seal Team 6. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2015/06/07/world/asia/the-secret-history-of-seal-team-6.html?_r=3&referrer=

Winkler designed the Sayoc-Winkler "R&D Hawk" in conjunction with Sayoc Tactical Group Tomahawk Instructor Rafael Kayanan as a tomahawk for modern military applications.^[5]
