OlliN Sword Design Mission Statement
Design and create artistic, collectible arms and sculpture that push the limits of creativity, and provide customer service that exceeds expectations as
the result of our passion for inventiveness, creativity, professionalism,
quality, and vision.

Mark Grzybowski graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee with a BA in Metalsmithing and Jewelry Design minoring Anthropology, Archaeology, and Comparative Religion. This infusion of interests in college laid the groundwork for Mark’s unique vision and style.

Mark has been working as a sword maker since 1999 and spent a little over two years with Albion Armorers working with notable swordsmiths Jodi Samson and Randal Graham. He went on to work several years with Rick Barrett at Barrett Custom Knives before he was approached about starting his own company.

Mark Grzybowski's vision for custom swords and arms designs is a conglomerate of ancient civilizations and pop culture that brings a unique and fresh view to creating modern arms and sculpture. His pieces become a melting pot of these ideas resulting in the birth of amazing original art, which transcends the traditional concepts of sword and arms.

Matthew Grzybowski graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Oshkosh with a BA in Communications - Theater minoring in Business Administration. This combination of interests is still reflected in his pursuits.

Matt has worked in the publishing industry for over 7 years and continues to pursue his theatrical interests through writing and directing. In 2002 his play Untitled Farce was produce Off Broadway.

Matthew is extremely excited to be working with OlliN having always been a huge fan of swords and edged weapons. He feels that Mark's designs are some of the most unique and exciting that he's ever seen. He is also very excited to have creative input into the Zombie Defense Collection.
