About the Maker
Hodgson, Richard J.
Colorado knife maker Richard Hodgson was one of of the most highly regarded knife makers ever to produce folders. He spent most of his career working for NASA making one of-a-kind high-precision parts for spacecraft, and he made knives on the side. Hodgson's fit and finish were second to none, and he was especially well known for his innovative bearings, fasteners and release mechanisms. He was also a member of the Art Knife Invitational (AKI) and did not make very many knives by today's standards, although exactly how many he did make remains unclear. He passed away in 2006.
