Inspired by the fantastic success of the original MSK-1 that was launched on Kickstarter in 2016 - David started wondering if the MSK-1 (which he and Jeff Freeman so painstakingly designed and prototyped over a three year period) could be even better.
So, he began the search for a USA based, like-minded and visionary knife maker that could help him take the MSK-1 Survival Knife to the next level.
It's a Crazy Knife - That Takes a Unique Company to Make It
He met (and spoke with) company after company looking for that ONE master knife maker that was the right fit.
After many disappointments, false starts and setbacks, David said to his son (and business partner) Ben, "We really need to talk to Craig and Leo (their real names may or may not be protected for secrecy). I dunno if they would be interested, but they may be the only guys that might understand my vision for the MSK-1 and could help us make it even better."
The rest is now history. David and Ben did meet with Craig and Leo "secretly" at SHOT SHOW, "and to say, we all hit it off, is an understatement!", Ben remembers.
How We Took MSK-1 to the Next Peak of Performance and Precision
"Craig and Leo blew us away! They actually both smiled as they listened to me share my future vision and held the original MSK-1s in their hands", recounts David.
Then David asked, "So, what do you guys think?" And what came next blew his mind. They both began to share innovative ideas on how to make the new generation of MSK-1 knives even better than the original - all while keeping the price in line.
The choice was clear. And these men were ALL in. "We shook hands, and within just a few weeks I had beautiful prototypes of the new MSK-1 Elite, MSK-1 Mini Elite Neck Knife and MSK-1 Elite Warrior knives", David said with a smile.
