Stories of Craftsmanship, Legacy, and Luxury Design

Three Forks™ was founded by Chris Kelley, retired U.S. Navy SEAL, and Christian Knutzen, retired U.S. Army Green Beret—two veterans whose passion for history and exploration led them to uncover and preserve the world’s most storied structures.

​

Their mission: to reclaim history with integrity. From the D-Day barns of Normandy to forgotten European workshops, they lead teams worldwide in ethically recovering historic timber. Every piece undergoes a meticulous preservation process ensuring its authenticity, stability, and provenance before reaching your project.

​

Together, Chris and Christian bring decades of leadership, logistics, and craftsmanship experience to a company rooted in heritage, precision, and honor. Their work connects past and present allowing architects, designers, and builders to design with materials that carry meaning.
