Spyderco®
Spyderco® adds another dimension - a very sharp one - to our already rich and varied collections. This well-known maker's claims to fame are two-fold. Spyderco knives are equally well-known for their signature, easy, one-hand-opening design featuring a round hole in the top of each blade AND for their serrated Spyder® Edge. This type edge, much copied today, is perfect for difficult cutting chores... even making light work of seatbelts, should the need arise! These knives feature premium, high-tech, blade steels. Oh, and by the way, we almost forgot to mention that all our Spyderco® models sport a stainless steel pocket clip that keeps them at-the-ready at all times.

Buck Knives
Everyone knows Buck. Many may remember receiving their first Buck pocket knife from their father, and may have continued the tradition with their own children. The popularity of Buck stems from their meticulous attention to detail, sophisticated blade making practices, and the top notch steels (420HC) used in their ordinary pocket knives. When asked what a specific knife was used for, founder Al Buck used to laugh and say, "No matter what we designed it for, it's what the person who buys it uses it for." We hope you'll enjoy our versatile selection of popularly-priced pocket cutlery from this innovative cutler.

Painted Desert
No maker summary would be complete without a mention of our handle artisans. By far the most artistic handle options we offer are those in this picture marquetry palette. They comprise a series of Southwest motifs, a variety of wildlife (both predators and prey). Our thanks to a couple of talented and creative folks who we partner with to bring you these modern representations of a Renaissance wood inlay process. Stan Lance, a Native American of Laguna and Yaqui descent, and Andrew Mancusco, an Oregonian with a fascination for the Nordic and Celtic influences in all things Tolkien, have literally taken the intricacies of this art form to its limits. Yes, those are individually cut and fitted shapes in exotic woods and gemstones; and, no, they haven't gone blind yet, or cut off any fingers. See the full Painted Desert Collection Here »
