A new chapter
Kerf + Carved
We’re thrilled to share some big news: KerfCase is now part of Carved!
Carved has been designing and making unique wood and resin products since 2010 in Elkhart, Indiana. From phone cases to art pieces, our small team has always focused on celebrating the beauty of real wood through thoughtful design and craftsmanship.

Kerf, founded in 2013 by Ben Saks, built an incredible reputation for minimalist wood cases and accessories—each one crafted with precision and care. Together, Carved and Kerf share the same passion: creating products that are natural, beautiful, and built to last.
Now we get to bring the best of both worlds together. Our goal is simple: make Kerf even better. That means elevating the quality you already know and love, introducing a wider variety of wood species, and refining the details that make each case special—while keeping the timeless Kerf aesthetic intact.
We’re just getting started. It will take us a little time to expand the lineup, update the website, and make these improvements—but they’re coming. In the meantime, we’re here for you. If you have questions, please reach out. And if you’d like to be the first to hear about new launches and updates, join our email newsletter and follow us on social.
Kerf has always been about bringing a piece of nature into everyday life. We’re honored to carry that vision forward—and we can’t wait to show you what’s next.
Note from the founders...
Building Kerf has been an incredible journey, and I’m so grateful to everyone who has helped me along the way. I’m excited to see Kerf continue to grow with Carved, a team that shares the same passion for the beauty of real wood.
Ben Saks (Founder, KerfCase)
Kerf has created something truly special, and we’re honored to continue that. Our goal is to make everything you already love about Kerf even better and to keep creating pieces that feel as unique as the wood they’re made from.
