My name is Grant Douglas Cunningham.
After ten years of working for and learning from some of the best knife makers in the game, I set out in January 2024 on my own path toward the strongest cutlery I can produce from the finest American material I can find. With a refined blend of industrial-era and modern techniques, my hard-using blades are meticulously forged to shape on my hundred year old Little Giant power hammer from premium choice alloy round bar or ball bearing steels. Quench and heat treat cycles are tripled, and freehand grinds ensure a lifetime of performance that I sincerely guarantee. I am proud to share my craft through various classes and experiences for every skill level, keep knives in stock, take custom orders, and always have time for discussions about why my knives will ruin the ordinary.
