About the Maker
Centofante, Frank
Frank Centofante began making knives in 1968, and was one of the pioneers of the custom knife movement. He joined The Knifemakers’ Guild in 1971 and became a full-time knifemaker in 1977 after a long and successful career as a fireman and EMT. He served 18 years as a member of the board of directors of the Knifemakers Guild, and nine of those as the president. Inducted into The Blade Magazine Cutlery Hall of Fame in 1997. Frank passed away in 2009.
Spyderco
Spyderco was founded in 1976 by Sal and Gail Glesser. Initially, the company focused on selling their first product the Tri-Angle Sharpmaker™, primarily at fairs and trade shows around the country. In 1981, the Glessers put down roots in Golden, Colorado and introduced the first Spyderco folding knife. That knife pioneered the concept of a round hole in the blade for one-handed opening, a clip on the handle for carry at the top of the pocket, and the option of a serrated edge for aggressive cutting performance. Those features revolutionized the knife industry and literally defined the form of the modern folding knife. Since then, Spyderco has steadily grown to become one of the leaders in the cutlery industry. In addition to a worldwide distribution network and manufacturing resources in the U.S., Japan, Taiwan, Italy, and China, our innovation has also earned us an impressive portfolio of patents, trademarks, and industry awards. More importantly, it has allowed us to earn the trust and loyalty of countless thousands of dedicated knife users around the world—an audience to whom we are extremely grateful.
