Valentines Day sale

Order any knife for your sweetheart (or yourself!) and I will make a free sheath for it from either of these kydex patterns pictured above (pink Digital camo or ATACs™Vista Pink) a $33.98 value. Just select the sheath under the options when you order. This makes for a great gift for the woman in your life by marking her knife as distinctively hers, so as to avoid the accusations of getting yourself a knife under the guise of a gift for her!

Be sure to email me with any questions at davy@hook-knives.com

Cheers,

Welcome

Welcome to Hook Knives! On our homepage you can see a bunch of my past work and what we have been up to. You can also find each of my standard blade designs listed under "About Our Blade Options", as well as information on ordering a custom build. Once you figure out what you like in a blade, you can visit our "handle materials" site to learn more about the vast options you have in handle materials. Once you have decided on both those options then visit our "products list and ordering" page and check out so I can start to build your dream knife! Or contact me at davy@hook-knives.com

Our Knives

Hook knives are built to fill the role of that essential tool that you have whenever you step off the pavement. We build them beautiful, we build them tough. We don't cut corners, we build them right. Our knives could best be considered tools. They are made for use, they are made for work. Like any tool they have a proper application. Knives are designed as a cutting tool, the edges are sharp and hard, meant for slicing and not prying or hacking. The hardness of the steel allows the blade to hold an edge for a long time, but prying with the tip of the knife can quickly chip the edge. If you want to open a soup can then a knife is not the proper tool, get a can opener. If it has a wood handle, then do not wash it in the dishwasher. Treat your knife properly, and use it for its intended purpose, as a tool for skinning, cutting rope, or fishing line and the numerous other functions of a knife. With proper care your Hook Knife will last you for a life time of adventures in this big wonderful world!

Steel

Unless otherwise stated, Hook knives are made from 9CR14 stainless (a virtual twin to 440C) or 440C stainless steel its self, the steel traditionally trusted by surgeons when lives are on the line. We hardened to 58-60 on the rockwell hardness scale. This combination is a very practical compromise between hardness and strength, meaning it weds supreme edge retention with a good resistance to chipping and cracking. Combined with the low-maintenance rust resistance of a stainless alloy this makes for a rough and rugged steel, very useful for the outdoorsman and chef alike.

You can have a custom ground knife from just about any steel available, including a dazzling array of exotic stainless damascus steels. (contact Davy at davy@hook-knives.com)

What is "stabilized" wood?

Stabilizing is a process by which we submerge the wood in resin and place it in our vacuum chamber to pull all the air from the wood and replace it with resin. Once activated the resin adds considerable strength, toughness and water resistance to the wood, making for an exceptionally durable handle material from even soft woods. Our stabilizing process gives nearly 100% penetration throughout the wood, meaning that even if you should happen to scratch the handle, the wood remains protected and durable.
