We had a great time designing, prototyping, and producing this run.

These knives are CNC machined, then hand finished.  If you're looking for a factory knife with thousands or more being cranked out, this is not for you. The bevels are hand ground, so they are not perfect.  The scale and inlay fit up is very good, but intentionally have not been all ground together like most, if not all Slipjoints we have seen. With this concept; the edges may not be perfect, but replacement inlays and even scales would be interchangeable with limited work.  We love these knives handmade feel and bet you will too.
