Where we came from..

It started with a farrier apprenticeship in 2012 when our head bladesmith learned the fundamentals of blacksmithing. Fast forward to 2019, in Okinawa, Japan with an angle grinder and a block of steel. The goal was to forge the perfect knife for every day use that held up just as well in garrison and it did in the field. After about a year of trial and error, the first design was finished. A knife small enough to be carried everywhere, but large enough to accomplish any task. A concave handle shape paired with an integral finger groove made the knife comfortable for any size hand. Fast forward to today, the methods have improved, the offerings have expanded, but the core tenant of ultimate functionality from a hand made design has remained. 

The vision stands to create not just tools, but functional art that's built to last and guaranteed for life.
