Weekly Deals from KnivesShipFree 5.5.2023

Hi Friends,

After some less-than-stellar work from a concrete contractor, my at-home shop construction project is sliding down the calendar - but at least when its done, itll be nice. I cant imagine how stressful it is to build a whole house if just building a shop can have so many pitfalls. Im trying to remain patient, but ya know how that goes sometimes.

In knife news, makers have been delivering exciting blades to us all week. Ive got some great custom fixed blades in the lineup along with some of the best production knives out there. Lets get to the good stuff.

Lon Humphrey Minuteman Forged 52100

Lon proudly handcrafts his knives in his Ohio, USA shop using parts and materials that are sourced within the United States. You will be proud to own a knife that is rugged, sturdy, and beautiful art all at once. We just received his brand new Minuteman with a 4.5 blade of forged 52100 steel!

Buck Deploy Blackout Pro Auto

This stealthy looking auto from Buck Knives has a black Cerakote finish across the entire knife. In this Pro variant, it's outfitted with CPM-S35VN blade steel which excels in everyday use.

Bradshaw Blades

Casey Bradshaw creates clean designs with excellent fit and finish. Every knife is made by hand in Indiana, one at a time. He sent us a wide variety of blades, each unique in its own way. The knives he makes are fairly rare, usually not available in batches, so if you see one you like, grab it before it's gone.

LionSteel BestMan Slipjoint

It's no secret I love slipjoint pocket knives. The LionSteel BestMan brings old and new together. Modern, classy versions of classic models with crisp half-stops, carbon fiber covers, titanium bolsters, and M390 blade steel. This is a winner.

Benchmade 173BK Mini SOCP Dagger

Benchmade's Mini SOCP dagger can be carried anywhere and drawn instantly. It weighs only 3 ounces and fits completely into the deep-carry sheath with a finger ring that can quickly deploy the knife.

Spyderco Chaparral Sun & Moon

The Chaparral has seen some great renditions, but the Sun & Moon is the most unique Ive seen. It was designed to emulate the yin-yang with opposing handle colors and inlays. The blade is high-performance CTS-XHP in a full-flat grind.

Benchmade "Super Freek" M4

We just restocked this high-performance workhorse folder. The Freek is a great everyday user, especially when its upgraded with textured G-10 scales, red spacers, and a blade of CPM-M4 super steel.

Shun Premier Nakiri - $40 OFF

This is Shuns Premier version of a Japanese vegetable knife, perfect for push cuts through vegetables. The blade is 64-layer stainless Damascus, and the hammered finish helps prevent food sticking. It's also $40 OFF for a limited time!
