About the Maker
Clark Knives, Jason
My name is Jason Clark and I am a full-time knife maker. I began a career as a full time as a Florida Law Enforcement Officer in 1997, serving as a State Trooper and later a as member of the Inspector General's office. In 2018, I plunged into knife making full time. I am Christian and my family and I are active members of the Church. I use top quality materials and components for my knives and incorporate several different finishes including: hand rubbing, media blasting, stone washing, and polishing. Due to all the components of my knives being handmade there are sure to be some small variations from one knife to another of the same model. Due to constant refinement and updated construction techniques there may be some minor changes in knife model specifications. Since I am a custom knife maker I can add or change features of knife models at customer request, such as: adding a thumb stud or thumb disk, removing or adding a flipper tab, or adding or removing a pocket clip. The knife models I make are available in any configuration. Models can made as frame locks or liner locks with bolsters, scales, or in all titanium.
Hinderer, Rick
In the mid 1980’s Rick Hinderer began his knife making journey making art knives in a small 14′ x 18′ turkey coop with none of the modern amenities, like heat or running water! Art knives are a far cry from the tactical scene which Rick is so deeply entrenched in now. Over the years his meticulous attention to knife design and knife making, coupled with his real world experience as a Fire Fighter / EMT sets him apart from the rest. Rick’s design philosophy is deeply rooted in his experience with using his knives as part of his first responder tools. That catalyst of change from art knives to hard use tactical was after Rick joined the rescue dive team. He really began to look at knives and designs more as hard use tactical tools than works of art. Rick began changing over from old world knife making techniques to modern CNC precision manufacturing. With the combination of designing art knives, and his real world experience as a first responder, this unusual perspective allows him to design hard use tactical folders that are not only aesthetically pleasing to the eye, but extremely comfortable in the hand. All of Rick’s products are engineered to go the distance when it counts the most whether it be when life is on the line, or you just need a good cutting tool.
