About the Maker
Klotzli Knives
Klotzli Knives of Switzerland has been producing knives for well over 150 years and has achieved an international reputation for making "upscale working folders". Utilizing materials as 440C stainless steel, carbon fiber, titanium and G-10 and adhering to the highest standards in production, the results are consistent excellence.Klotzli knives are designed by two premier mdern custom knifemakers - Michael Walker of the USA and Christian Wimpff of Germany. A custom knife from either of these makers would cost well over $1000 at the least. Peter Klotzli, a fifth generation knifemaker in his own right, personally supervises the production as well as personally checks each knife that leaves his workshop of three knifemakers.

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.
