Welcome to Cutting Edge Flutes!

 

 

Cutting Edge: n. (1) edge of a tool's blade (2) at the latest or most advanced stage of development; innovative or pioneering (3) portion of flute, a sharp blade of material, inducing oscillations and creating tones

 

CEF is small hobbyist webstore selling computer designed and fabricated, unique, custom aerophones: panpipes, single/double flutes, and ocarinas.  Instruments are tuned to several scales used throughout the world: Minor pentatonic, Japanese Hirajoshi, Middle Eastern/Indian Hijaz-Kar, and more. The flute designs are literally printed on "3D printers".

 

Because I use computer design, there are many decorative possibilities, painting your instrument with a range of images from stunning photographs of the natural world to beloved creations from the greatest artists.  You choose the type of flute, the tuning, and the decoration from a list of options! See our Available Flutes.

 

With custom orders, you will specify the decoration along with the flute design and tuning, producing a one-of-a-kind, "cutting edge" musical instrument!
