A Limited Release of 100
A Tribute to Our Home in the West
A sharp memento of Jackson Hole. A tribute to wild rivers and wild craftsmanship.
This summer, we're unveiling a limited release of just 100 Snake River 8" Chef Knives—a stunning evolution of our most iconic blade, inspired by the waters that define our home.
Each knife is a one-of-a-kind tribute to the Snake River, featuring a topographic river engraving and a custom handle of stabilized maple and deep azure resin—capturing the cottonwoods, currents, and character of a high summer float.
Sign up below for early access to this limited release. First Access subscribers will get first pick before the public launch.
