CEO and founder Brandon Hampton has been developing blades for the culinary world & military for well over a decade. There is no question we err on the side of innovation. Our whole business is built around sourcing, creating, and using the best possible materials. As new materials and technologies adapt or are created, we are the first to adopt them into our operations. We use cutting edge technology to provide our consumers with blades made out of the best materials possible and will continue to do so with the evolution of technology and science. Every item that leaves our facility is hand made and quality controlled.

Currently, we use PM (Particle Metallurgy) grade steels. PM grade steels outclass traditional hand forged steels because there is a better distribution of the individual elements in the makeup of the material. When it comes to steel, you’re looking for HRC (hardness), toughness, and abrasion resistance. The hardness determines how sharp a material can get while the toughness affects how easily it will chip or snap on you. Abrasion resistance dictates how hard or easy the steel is to sharpen. With PM grade steels you have a product with a very clean uniform structure, and no fracture or green lines. PM grade steels allow you the possibility to heat treat consistently to the same standard to be very hard and very tough, have a very sharp edge that will maintain, and accrue an extreme resistance to chipping or breaking. There is currently no steel that outperforms the PM grade steels we have that is readily available.

Our promise to you is:

  1. You will receive a high quality knife that will exceed any given expectation.

  2. We will always lead on the forefront of metal technology to ensure your blade is made from the best material on the market at the time of its creation.
