Tupelo

Pre-Orders Closed: Thank you to all who pre-ordered! More stock coming soon!

Alright, folks! The time is finally right to let y'all know about a huge project we've been working on for the better part of a year. You might have seen us teasing this project over the last few months on our various social media channels, but this evening we are ready to give you a full look at an exciting new project we're calling the Tupelo!

The Tupelo is a sleek and traditional slipjoint design that we are building completely in-house in small batches. Each Tupelo is skillfully cut, shaped, fit, heat-treated, hand-ground, and assembled by one of three pairs of hands, all belonging to artisans who share the last name: Smith.

Each Tupelo features:

• A smooth, hand-sanded backspring that sits flush in the open, closed, and half-stop positions.
• Relieved stainless liners for buttery smooth operation.
• Long pull nail nick paired with a meticulously tuned backspring for easy, yet secure opening.
• Hand-ground AEB-L blade with a satin finish.
• Contrasting shield badge (various materials) that's inlaid and outlined for that perfect vintage look.
• 3D machined handle scales with enough shaping to produce perfect ergonomics while remaining flat enough to lay in

Production prototypes shown; the final product may be subject to minor changes.

PLEASE NOTE: DUE TO THE RANDOM NATURE OF PATTERNS PRODUCED USING MATERIALS LIKE G-10 BURL AND RICHLITE, WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT THE KNIFE YOU RECEIVE WILL LOOK EXACTLY LIKE THE KNIFE PICTURED. HOWEVER, IT WILL LOOK VERY SIMILAR. THE RANDOM PATTERN THAT IS UNIQUE TO THESE MATERIALS MEANS EACH KNIFE WILL BE UNIQUE AND DISTINCT. NO TWO ALIKE!
