Why We Opened Pre-Orders

Every Thursday at 7pm, we drop new knives on the site. Most sell out within minutes. Some in seconds. We love the energy but we kept hearing the same thing from customers: “I missed it again.”

So we opened up pre-orders. Same knives, same quality, same team of three building every blade by hand in Anna Bay. The only difference? You’re guaranteed to get yours.

Build times fluctuate between 2 and 6 weeks depending on demand. We’ll keep you updated along the way. And if we get too busy, we close pre-orders until we catch up — so if they’re open, lock it in.
